Year 4 have finished the term with a Tudor Christmas celebration.
Singing outside Bessie Surtees House
We were invited to St Mary's Heritage Centre to see how the Tudors celebrated Christmas.
First we set off to visit Bessie Surtees House and were lucky to see The Swing Bridge opening.
Waiting to cross The Swing Bridge
We eventually reached Bessie Surtees house where we were greeted at the door with some lemon cake then shown the beautiful rooms and some traditonal artefacts. We listened to traditional music and sampled some games that the children played at that time.

Exploring Tudor traditions
Tudor dancing
Making pomanders
After a lot of exploration we returned to St Mary's Heritage Centre and practised some Tudor dancing then finished off by making pomanders to take home and make our homes smell nice.
