Warwick Castle
On Friday 11th October, Year 7 went on a trip to Warwick Castle. We set off at 7:30am and we got there at around 10:30am. We headed off in form groups into the dungeons. There were actors that were dressed up like the people would have been at the time. There were several rooms that we went in. It was a bit scary, but a lot of fun!
At lunchtime, we sat on benches on the grass. We saw some beautiful peacocks while we ate as well.
We then went on the Trebuchet Tour. There were two people who ran in something that looked like a giant hamster wheel that made the rope move. The rope would help them shoot the large rocks at whatever they were attacking.
The last thing we got to do was explore the castle with our friends. The inside of the castle was very fancy and the furniture was very elegant.
We then headed back on the coaches and eventually got back to school at 6:30pm.
Overall, it was a fun day and everyone had a good time.

Ingleton Waterfall Trip
On Wednesday 9th October, the Year 8s went on a trip to Ingleton Waterfalls trail where learnt about the formation of waterfalls right in person! The trail is a 4.5-mile walk, home to 6 main spectacular waterfalls that come from two different rivers. The picturesque walk showed off some of Britain’s prettiest nature featuring towering oak trees, v-shaped valleys, steep hills and the gorgeous waterfalls. Here are some pictures taken by a student who attended the trip!
