Year 2 trip to Mountfitchet Castle

On Wednesday the 21st of June, Year 2 departed William Ransom to spend the day at Mountfitchet Castle. We had so much fun exploring the various parts of the castle that were on display and we all had a fantastic day. We also got to explore the toy museum which Mr Palmer discovered had a significant amount of toys he used to play with as a child on display which made him feel very old!

The children learned about the communities that once inhabited this area and how they lived. We also got to see some brilliant interactive exhibits and there was ample opportunity for us to try on some armour and helmets. Just about every child wanted their photograph in the stocks so sadly there wasn’t enough space to include all of those here but do scroll down for a few photos of what was a genuinely brilliant day.
