On Monday, we embarked on a captivating trip to the historic Tower of London. Transported back in time to the Tudor era, Year 4 delved into the fascinating tales of Henry VIII’s wives. The day was filled with interesting facts and stories, and we explored the White Tower to view Henry VIII’s weaponry and armour. We were also lucky enough to view the impressive crown jewels – a highlight for many of the Year 4 pupils!

“We learnt a rhyme for the six wives of Henry VIII – divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived!” – Errol
