On Thursday 26th February, our Year 7 pupils enjoyed an exciting trip to the MAD Museum and Shakespeare’s Schoolroom, taking part in a day full of learning and discovery.

At the MAD Museum, pupils saw their learning from Maths, Design Technology and Science come to life through fascinating mechanical exhibits and hands-on activities, sparking great questions and discussions.

After a picnic lunch in the sunshine, pupils visited Shakespeare’s Schoolroom where they experienced what life was like in a Shakespearean classroom. They took part in a traditional lesson, practised quill writing and even dressed in clothing from the period.

One of the highlights of the day was seeing pupils show real resilience, with some overcoming their fears of mini-beasts and butterflies and even handling them under supervision.

The day was a fantastic blend of education and fun. Well done to our pupils who were recognised by the venue for their excellent behaviour and enthusiasm.
