English Civil War Deep Learning Day – 28th June

Our friends from Great Torrington came back to Clyst Vale to talk about life during the English Civil War. Once again the student behaviour was brilliant.

Some comments from year 8 include

Martha Bolt 8YMBr

“The English Civil War day was amazing. As a year 8 student I found the day very inspiring. I thought I knew a lot about the War, however they taught me so much more.”

Sam Mills 8YMBr

” I really enjoyed the English Civil War day. My favourite part of the day was the musket firing. I did not know the musket shots were so powerful. One musket shot could easily go through three people!”

Archie Andrews

“I really enjoyed this deep learning day. I liked their acting and I really liked wearing the armour.”
