Our International pupils enjoyed a cultural trip to Wells...

Last Thursday, the international pupils were offered a cultural trip out of school. The day started with a very interesting tour around the Wookey Hole Caves, a beautiful place with a fascinating story behind it. We had an amazing experience inside as we didn’t expect such beautiful caves from the outside. The pupils were impressed with all the history and legends about those caves and took lots of delightful pictures of the stalagmites. One of these stalagmites was millions of years old! We learnt that the caves have been used by humans for 45,000 years.

It wasn’t just a simple tour, as we also experienced an exciting 4D cinema show and had a go at some paper making, as they used to do it 400 years ago.  

After that pleasing visit, we went to Wells, an appealing small city in the South West of England. It is called a city because a long time ago, the cities were the ones that had a Cathedral. That’s exactly what we visited, the amazing Cathedral of Wells. King’s Bruton thinks that it is very important that the international students learn about the culture of this country and have an opportunity to visit charming places like that. We had a tour guide inside the Cathedral and had some time to appreciate the beauty of that piece of architecture and the amazing astronomical clock - the oldest in Europe. It was an excellent day out discovering the area.
