CHILDREN at Manor Fields Primary enjoyed making castles and crowns as part of a medieval day on Monday.

The Key Stage 1 children and staff dressed in medieval clothing for the day, learned a medieval castle dance and made crowns and stained glass windows.

The day marked the end of their term topic on castles and the children had a challenge to make a castle in half an hour.

The winners got to be the lord and lady at a banquet in the afternoon, when everyone enjoyed the apple pies they had made, and then all the 60 KS1 children taking part showed the dance they had learned to their friends.

Becky Crowley from the school said: “The children loved it. It was a really good way to end the topic and really brought everything together.”
