Y3- Windy trip to Maiden Castle!

We have had a fantastic day at Maiden Castle. I am extremely proud of all of Year 3 and how well they walked to Maiden Castle and handled the rather windy weather. They all got involved in the activities and were very polite. Well done! A huge thank you to our parent helpers this morning and to the South Dorset Ridgeway project that hosted the event.


We started our trip at the top of the hill where we were talking about boundaries. There were some amazing settlements that had been set up and some interesting boxes with different pieces of art work in.


Then we started to head down where we learnt about the defences at Maiden Castle and what a struggle it would have been in battle. 

After that we split in to groups and did a number of activities such as natural painting, 3D art work, Dance, flint demonstration, animal totems and finally we made badges.
