Exploring Myths and Legends at Grovely Woods

On Monday, Eden class set out on an exciting adventure to Grovely Woods in Wilton, launching our brand-new topic: Myth, Legends and Folklore.

Armed with curiosity (and good walking shoes!), we completed a 7km trek through the woods, tracking down three legendary sites steeped in mystery. First, we paused at the Roman Road, famous for its strange phenomenon where some say you can still hear the footsteps of Roman soldiers or even World War II troops marching through. Next, we reached the towering beech tree, rumoured to be the burial place of a witch. Finally, we learned about the mysterious Burcombe Woodsman, said to appear as a shadowy figure among the trees.

Throughout the day, our pupils were fantastic, showing brilliant behaviour, enthusiasm and a real thirst for learning while out in the wild.

What an inspiring way to kick off our new topic!
