4 May 2017 Year 7 History Visit to Hampton Court Palace - Mon 22 May 2017 Dear Year 7 Parents and Guardians On Monday 22nd May 2017, the History Department will be taking Year 7 to Hampton Court Palace. This visit will follow on from your daughter’s study of the Tudors this term. We will be investigating how Hampton Court Palace has developed from a large barn on the manor of Hampton, into a Tudor and then a baroque palace, and finally a visitor attraction with ‘grace and favour’ apartments. We shall look at how the buildings developed, imagine what it would have been like to live there at different times in the past, how their use has changed, and think about the benefits and problems the growth of tourism has posed for the people who look after it. We have also booked a workshop where your daughter will be considering the nature of politics and power in Elizabethan England and the religious changes experienced during the Tudor period. We will meet in the Dining Room at 7.45 am, and will return to school by 4.15 pm. Your daughter should wear her school uniform, but will need to bring a coat if the weather is wet as some time will be spent outside due to the nature of the site. Lunch will be provided, but a small amount of money (about £5) can be brought to purchase a drink, ice-cream or souvenirs during the day. The cost of this day trip will be £14.00 and will be added to your Autumn Term fee bill. Yours sincerely,
Miss L. Hunter History Department
