2nd Year History Trip to Arundel Castle & Amberley Museum

Pupils in the 2nd Year enjoyed a day out visiting Arundel Castle and Amberley Museum recently. 

We had a fantastic day in the Autumn sunshine, exploring the fascinating Amberley Industrial museum. The steam train was a highlight, but so too was understanding the process behind the creation of lime, exploring the amazing electricity displays and seeing so many ‘dated’ artefacts such as old fire engines and phones.

At Arundel, we stepped back into a Medieval world full of portcullises and crenelations, and we gazed up at the mighty motte and bailey castles, and down into the eery ‘oubliettes’. Pupils enjoyed trying on costumes and feeling the weight of chain mail.

At both locations we very fortunate to take part in workshops and have exceptionally enthused guides to show us round.
