On Thursday 30th November, Maples Class visited Hever Castle. First, the children toured the castle which was beautifully decorated, ready for Christmas. Whilst visiting the Drawing Room, we were joined by ‘Elizabeth Boleyn’ (Anne’s mother) who answered our questions about her famous daughter and the castle’s history. Later, the children toured the Weapon Room, where they learnt about popular methods of torture in Tudor times!
Once outside, Maples Class went around the gardens and managed to find their way out of the old maze. After lunch, they enjoyed playing in the Tudor themed play park and visited the nearby Military Museum.
A big thank you to the adult helpers who joined us on the day and helped make it a memorable trip for all the children.
