Last week, our Year 2 pupils embarked on an exciting journey to Oxford Castle and Prison, immersing themselves in the sights and stories of the past. The day kicked off with a hands-on workshop where we got to experience the ins and outs of castle life. From trying on knights’ helmets to sniffing medieval scents, they were fully engaged in the medieval world.
The highlight of the castle tour was the climb up 101 stairs to the top, where we enjoyed stunning views of Oxford. The prison visit was equally fascinating, as we learned about its famous former residents and the harsh realities of confinement. Overall, it was a fantastic day!
