Well the weather wasn't the best but off we all headed on our trip to the local area. First stop was Summer Lane Methodist church to drop off our bags before one class headed to the cemetery and the other stayed in church.
We all learnt so much about the cemetery and the church. Did you know there are famous people in our cemetery? Do you know when the cemetery opened? I am sure the children could tell you.
It wasn't long before we had lunch and headed to our next stop - St Mary's. Wow what a difference this church was, from the size and the amount of stain glass windows to the difference in organs. I bet you didn't know that the organ in the Methodist Church has between 400 to 500 pipes. We all had a turn at playing some of the pipes and enjoyed singing a song using the organ.

What a fantastic day we have had despite the weather. We are so proud of the children and how well behaved they all were.
