Pre-Prep had an incredible visit to Houghton Hall to see the massive sculptures by Sean Scully and take a look inside the Hall.

They were amazed at the size and scale of the pieces and enjoyed being able to walk all the way around them.

The Hall itself drew lots of gasps, as the awe and wonder of the size, beauty and luxurious finish overwhelmed us.

They saw more works inside by Scully before a very special viewing of the actual throne Queen Camilla will sit on at the opening of parliament in the autumn.

A picnic on the lawn, under the shadows of the Hall and sculpture finished what was a unique and very special visit.

Year 1 had a fantastic trip to Langham Glass. Pupils watched some amazing glass making demonstrations, had a go at colouring glass and also made their own tea light holder to take home. Mrs Archer even blew a big glass bubble which the pupils enjoyed smashing! It was very exciting and Year 1 loved their tea light holders.
