Year 4 visit to the Golden Hinde

Year 4 have had a fantastic start to the week by visiting the Golden Hinde. The children were dressed as Tudors and leant about the key roles needed to work on board the Tudor galleon. The children learnt about the firing of cannons towards the enemy ships, what it would have been like to sleep on the Gun Deck with the goats, chickens and sheep, the tools needed to navigate the ship across the high seas, as well as how to treat the sailors aliments under the direction of the Barbour Surgeon. The children really enjoyed their time on board and we ended our afternoon with a stroll along the river spotting sights such as the Tower of London.
