Year 3 have been learning all about the Tudors. To support this topic, they had a fantastic day at Layer Marney Tower. Our happy historians found out how food and drinks were sourced during the Tudor period, experienced life in a Tudor school - learning how to write with quill and ink - and they also learnt to count up to 10 in Latin. Year 3 were climbed up the astonishing 99-step spiral staircase that leads to the top of the tallest Tudor gatehouse in England. They thoroughly enjoyed immersing themselves in the past and came away with a deeper understanding of the Tudor era.
