Worldly Wise: The Labours of Hacton

June 14, 2019
During our Worldly Wise assembly about the Greek Myth of Hercules, some of our pupils had to complete 'The Labours of Hacton' set by Mr Marshall and Miss Hornsby. The children understood the challenges of Hercules' labours - which were considered to be impossible - but just like Hercules, with patience and effort, our pupils managed to complete them.
