We have been learning about knights. On Tuesday afternoon we got busy making our own shields and swords.

'It was really good fun!' Andrew.
'I felt happy making them,' Chloe.
'I felt smart when I held my shield and sword,' Michaela.

Earl's and Bishop's Palaces

We went to visit the Earl's and Bishop's Palaces. We enjoyed exploring all the different rooms. We found lots of cellers, some chambers, a kitchen and the great hall. We really liked looking in the well and standing in the huge fireplaces.

Folk Festival Musicians

On Thursday a group of musicians called The Pooziers came to visit the school. We really enjoyed listening to them play their instruments and sing.



It was really good fun clapping along to the beat of the music.



We even got to have a go of the harp!

Drama with Mr Giles

On Wednesday we went to the hall to work with the drama teacher. We had a great time walking and waving like a King or Queen.




Then we walked in a procession. There was a king, queen, prince, princess and two guards. Can you tell who's who? We had to work as a team, making sure the group stayed together.



Mr Giles also showed us how to bow and curtsey like a king and queen would.
