A journey to Clitheroe Castle

Reception enjoy a day spent at Clitheroe Castle

The Reception classes visited Clitheroe Castle.   To start with they walked around the castle keep and spotted the arrow slit windows and spiral staircase. Everyone decided they wouldn’t have liked to be a prisoner in the dungeon!

                                                                 

Following on from this, the children went inside and listened to the guide who showed them how to make their own Motte and Bailey castle in the sand trays.  

                                                       

                                                                                               

All children had a fantastic day finding out lots of information about Clitheroe castle and the people who used to live there.
