Creative Castles

This Term girls in Year 7 were challenged to research and create a model of a Medieval castle.  How the girls went about creating the castle was very much up to them but they had to represent either a motte and bailey style castle or a specific Medieval castle in England.

The girls worked very hard and the creativity and imagination was clear to see, with castles made out of cake, chocolate, papier-mâché and even embroidered.  The whole school was then invited to come and view the castles and vote on which one was their favourite.

The winners were:

• First place – Sally O (motte and bailey style)
• Second Place – Sophie T (motte and bailey style)
• Third – Harriet C (Leeds Castle)

Head of History, Mrs Tinnelly said, "I was extremely impressed by the standard of the entries that were submitted for the competition.  It was a really tough decision to choose a winner as all the girls showed an excellent understanding of castle construction and really took the project on with fantastic levels of enthusiasm."
