Year 10 Trip The V&A and The Natural History Museum


74 pupils and 4 members of staff went to London to the V&A Museum and the Natural History Museum to collect resources and ideas for their Natural Form project. Congratulations are deserved for the oustanding behaviour and hard work. Some stunning drawings were done and copious leaflets, postcards and other freebies were collected by all. Pupils saw the classic exhibits suach as the Blue Whale, the moving Tyrannosaurus Rex and the earthquake, but most drawings tended to focus on smaller fossils, rocks, butterflies and skeletons.
