Our trip to Fountains Abbey.

24 Jun 2022

For our topic work we have been learning all about Fountains Abbey and looking at the lives of the monks who lived and worked there. On Monday we were lucky enough to go and have a look around and see for ourselves just what the abbey was like.

It was much bigger than we thought and we were all amazed by just how big it was! The children loved being able to look around and explore, and they were able to see for real all of the features we had talked about in class. We also used our detective skills to be archaeologists and we recorded the size and shape of different features before trying to work out what they were.

We did get the chance to try on some of the habits that were like the ones the monks wore, but we thought in the baking sunshine walking around in thick wool outfits might not have been the best idea!
