Cornwall

The Manor House

Violet Class spend a fantastic week in Cornwall at The Manor House, where they further their geographical and cultural understanding of the area.

There are visits to a local tin mine, Bodmin Moor and Wadebridge Estuary as well as cultural outings to the Tate Gallery, St Ives and the Dame Barbara Hepworth Museum.

There are also stacks of fun and sporting activities such as surfing, bike rides, crab fishing and a beach bonfire with marshmallow toasting. It’s an eventful week to remember – as you can see from the action-packed timetable below and photographs from our past few trips!
