As part of G31’s first expedition of learning students will carry out fieldwork focused on a historical enquiry into Anglo-Saxon and monastic life in the Northeast.
This will build on the immersive experiences they have gained this week in school where we have consolidated prior learning about the influences of the Romans and the Vikings into Medieval England.
This fieldwork will take place at St Bede’s Monastery, and Jarrow Hall Museum and Anglo Saxon farm and settlement in Jarrow.
Year 7 Class 2 Students will carry out this fieldwork on Monday 9th September with Year 7 Class 1 completing it on Tuesday 10th. Students will be required to be at school by no later than 8:25am as usual and we will be leaving school at 08:45. We have a later than usual finish and expect to return to school by 3:30pm.
G31 students will need to bring a backpack including:
A filled water bottle, Pencil case including: pens, pencils, ruler, eraser and pencil sharpener, notebook and reading book but will not need to bring their ipad.
They should wear comfortable shoes and bring a waterproof jacket and sun cream depending on the weather.
A healthy packed lunch will also be needed (this will be supplied by school, for those students who are entitled to a free school lunch, if it is required) and as always we must stress that this should not include nuts, fizzy drinks or energy drinks please.
