School Trip to Sulgrave Manor

Today was Jamie's school trip. They went to Sulgrave Manor, which is near Banbury in Oxfordshire and had a brilliant time. Here is a photo of Jamie on the coach. School trips are so important to the learning experience and are so looked forward to by the children. I had hoped to go along and help but sadly I was committed to something else and couldn't make it, fingers crossed I can help out another time.

Sulgrave Manor is the ancestral home of George Washington's ancestors (yes that one!), one of those wonderful places where everyone dresses up and you can get a flavour of what life was like. It is particularly geared to supporting work done in school on The Tudors and therefore will help re-inforce what they have been up to this term in history.

Jamie certainly had a super day, he was packed off this morning with an extra special lunchbox, hat, sun-cream etc and was quite tired by the time he got home. Jamie took the old camera with him so he is the photographer, not a bad job at all. An enjoyable day for him.

Ciao
