Year 4 step back in time to the Tudor era!

Year 4 had a fantastic day immersing themselves in history during their visit to the Shrewsbury Museum and Art Gallery. The trip was packed with exciting hands-on learning and memorable experiences that brought their Tudor topic to life.

As part of a special workshop, the children had the opportunity to dress up as rich and poor Tudors, have a go at using a quill to create Tudor-style writing, explore real artefacts, construct their own model Tudor houses, and even make traditional pomanders using herbs and spices—just like the Tudors did to keep unpleasant smells away!

The children also enjoyed a guided tour around the beautiful town of Shrewsbury, where they spotted key features of Tudor architecture and learned fascinating facts about the period.
