Year 7's Medieval Adventure with History Quest!

On Wednesday the 9th of July, our Year 7 students had the incredible opportunity to enrich their learning about Medieval life with an immersive visit from History Quest. The historical reenactors brought the past to life with engaging sessions on Medieval Medicine, everyday life, and Medieval warfare.

The students were exemplary throughout the day, showing great enthusiasm and curiosity. They had a wonderful time exploring the intricacies of Medieval history and gaining a deeper understanding of the era's challenges and innovations. From learning about the peculiar practices of Medieval Medicine to experiencing the daily routines of people from that time, and even witnessing the strategies and equipment used in Medieval warfare, the day was packed with fascinating insights and hands-on learning.

We are proud of our Year 7 students for their exemplary behaviour and eagerness to learn. A big thank you to History Quest for providing such an enriching and memorable experience!
