School pupils take a step back in time for lessons
The Year 5 pupils from St Joseph’s Park Hill were treated to a morning of learning with an emphasis on fun when they looked at the Viking, Roman and Medieval periods with their hosts.
A series of information stations constructed and manned by the high school students kept their young visitors enthralled and entertained while cakes and buns provided welcome refreshments.
