As part of their study of medieval castles and weapons, Year 7 recently visited Conwy Castle.
It was a really enjoyable day where students got the chance to climb the towers and walk the castle walls built by Edward I as part of his ‘ring of castles’.
King Edward I and his architect, Master James of St George, built both castle and walls in four years between 1283 and 1287.
Mrs. Wright -Davies, Curriculum Leader for History said,
”We had a very interesting day learning all about the castle and its history.
The weather was excellent and the students really enjoyed themselves.
Our pupils were able to connect what they’d recently studied in the classroom with a real life example”.
Students ended the day with fish and chips on the Harbourside!
