Form 4’s Ripley project
Form 4 enjoyed this term’s English project. They were whisked away on the first day of term to Ripley Castle where they discovered that their task was to write a children’s guide book. They were fascinated by the stories and history at the castle. Fortunate enough to have two further visits before the castle was open to the public the children have amassed a great deal of knowledge, so much in fact that 3 children were asked by the guides to start one of the public tours by explaining all that they knew about the Entrance Hall. What a privilege. They learned so much, especially why you don’t want to be caught ‘red handed’.
