• Poundstock Guildhouse

  Mon 14 Oct 2013

  On Friday 11th October 2013 class 5 went on a school trip to the Gildhouse in Poundstock. We went because our topic is Tudors.

  First we dressed up in Tudor peasants clothes. In the morning the activities we did were: Tudor bread making, ginger beer brewing and last of all we made cob.

  In the afternoon we dressed up as rich Tudors. We found the costumes extremely uncomfortable. A man told us what musical instruments the Tudors would have used.

  Soon after that we went downstairs to play some Tudor games. The games included: skittles, embroidery and chase the goose.

  Finally all of us walked back upstairs to do a Tudor dance called la Volta. We got partnered up in height order. It was great fun.

  Finally we collected our bread and ginger beer, said thank you and goodbye.

  Our recent trip to Hartland Quay gave us a great opportunity to stud the local environment and geology - it's a good example of how interesting the World can be if you put down the text books and actually go an have a look at things.

  In the morning, we explored the Parklands using skills such as observation, teamwork and investigation to get the children developing their knowledge and understanding of this unique habitat and three of its sub-habitats; trees, grasslands and deadwood.

  In the Afternoon, the children visited the bat cave, learning about the very special guests at Arlington Court, before discovering how a bat would feed through a fun game of Bat vs Moth!
