Year 5 Learning from London Landmarks

Last Tuesday, Year 5 set off into London for a special Global and English combined trip. Their class reader is set in Elizabethan London, so it was a fantastic opportunity to visit such wonderful historic sites, that are both featured in the story. At the Tower of London, the children learnt all about Sir Walter Raleigh and Alice Tankerville and their daring deeds and escapes!

At St Paul’s, the Year 5 s had an opportunity to take in the wondrous architecture, paintings and mosaics. As they were guided through the cathedral, the children sat where the choristers usually sit as well as touch and talk about Henry Moore’s sculpture, ‘ Mother and Child’.

What a brilliant day!
