Positive, Respectful and SafeBamburgh Beach Trip
What a fantastic day Year 1 had a Bamburgh yesterday. We visited The Grace Darling Museum, saw the house where she was born and went across the road to St Aidan's churchyard to look at the Grace Darling Memorial in the churchyard. We had a look around the church, too, and found out a little bit about the arrival of Christianity in the UK.
After lunch we went along to the beach in Bamburgh and looked at the natural and human-made features of the coast. We could see the Farne Islands and Grace's lighthouse out at sea. History, RE and Geography all in one trip! We made sure we had enough time to play in the sand and have a paddle in the sea.
We had blue skies and the sun shone - we were so lucky. It really was a great trip. The children were so well-behaved and such good fun. Many thanks to the wonderful parent helpers who gave up their time to accompany us.
