Our Year 2 Willow Class had a fantastic time exploring the sights of Tewkesbury as they took to the streets and alleys to discover what historical secrets lay within our town. The children's first stop on their tour of Tewkesbury was The Roses Theatre where they talked about and shared stories of the times they had visited to watch plays and films there. Some of the children even told the class about their experiences of performing on the stage at The Roses themselves. Following the class' first local landmark visit, they walked a little further down the High Street and discovered the terrific Tudor architecture that Tewkesbury boasts. At this landmark, the children made observtaional sketches of the places and buildings they saw. The class then headed towards Healings Mill and were treated to a short talk from Miss Walker who shared information about the history of the flour mill. After admiring the mill, the class crossed the River Avon and walked along the river path by The Ham. The Year 2 children spotted lots of brightly coloured boats moored along the river bank and even caught sight of a heron hiding in the bushes. After that, the children of Willow Class made their way to Tewkesbury Abbey and began their exploration of this magnificent building. The children enjoyed looking up at the ceiling architecture and studying the stained glass windows. As they looked around the Abbey, they were able to identify lots of exciting objects, including: candles, the font, gravestones, tombs and the golden eagle lectern. After a brief break, the class walked back to school, passing the War Memorial cross on their way. Willow Class behaved impeccably and walked around the town with great appreciation and respect. The children's tour of Tewkesbury with a focus on the physical and human geographical features of the town will help bring to life learning that happens in the classroom.
