Senior 2 trip to<br />
the Black Country<br />
Museum<br />
On July 7th, Senior 2 visited the<br />
Black Country Living Museum to<br />
bring to life their learning about the<br />
Industrial Revolution. A fantastic day<br />
was had by all, despite very heavy<br />
rain showers! We went through<br />
limestone miners’ caves on a canal<br />
boat, where James, Ben, Linda and<br />
Indiana showed off their ‘legging’<br />
skills and pulled the boat through a<br />
tunnel with their feet! We visited the<br />
village shops, with plenty of money<br />
being spent in the sweet shop, before<br />
our fish and chip lunch. Our guide<br />
showed us a range of Black Country<br />
industries being performed, including<br />
chain making and we went inside<br />
various homes and shops that have<br />
been authentically restored in the<br />
village. The students asked some<br />
excellent questions and I was proud<br />
of both their historical knowledge and<br />
exemplary behaviour throughout the<br />
day. A fantastic school trip with a<br />
delightful year group. Many thanks to<br />
Mr Buckton, Miss Robinson and Mrs<br />
Shaw for accompanying us.<br />

Lower Sixth Geology<br />
A level fieldtrips<br />
The LVI geologists managed to fit<br />
in three field trips at the end of term<br />
giving them the opportunity to put<br />
into practice the skills that they have<br />
learnt in the classroom.<br />
