We've Been Out, Out!
It was an absolute joy to see Classes 8,9 and 10 go on a trip to Beaumanor Hall as part of their World War Two Learning Adventure - the first visit out in a long, long time.
Did you know that during World War II, Beaumanor Hall was instrumental in the effort to break the German Enigma code? No, neither did we, so it was no wonder that pupils in Upper Key Stage 2 had a fantastic Inspiration Day as they were transported back as evacuees to WW2.
As well as learning all about rationing and experiencing life in an air raid shelter, pupils also got the chance to decode secret messages, rather like the ones solved at Bletchley Park. ‘The best day ever!’ is how one pupil described the visit!
