Year 10 in Berlin
Last week, during half term, Year 10 historians undertook an intense and fun study tour to Berlin.
Visiting a range of sites from the obvious tourist ones like the Brandenburg Gate to those associated with the Holocaust, the Third Reich and the Cold War. Trip highlights included visiting the Reichstag, going up the TV Tower at sunset, the East Side Gallery, the Wannsee Conference house, the underground bunker tour, the DDR Museum and plenty of free-time in gorgeous sunny weather!
“It was a lovely few days and as a teacher, I loved seeing our students enjoying a variety of experiences, including flying for some of the first times, so lovely that we hope to do it again next year and for years to come!”
