During the Summer 2007 Myers-Insole Local Learning delivered a series of trails around Tudor Bristol. The hour long walk took the form of an interactive guided tour where groups saw the sites of Tudor Bristol and met some of its characters such as the widow vintner, ship’s captain and a ratcatcher who may have lived and worked in 16th century Bristol. Pupils visiting the trails also got a chance to investigate the virtual trail of Tudor Bristol at Bristol Central Library using the Children's Library facilities. "...an absolutely brilliant morning," Emma Martin, teacher, Begbrook Primary School. "It was a wonderful way of bringing history to life and helping the children understand about the development of their city." Alan Rees, headteacher, Westbury Park Primary School. "I enjoyed the part when the Tudor people were there...I learnt that a lot of the wine came from Spain." Milly age 8. "I learned alot like a vintner sells wine and what a mercer is and loads of stuff. Thanks again." Spike age 8. "It was realy! realy! realy! intresting!!!!!!" Marceli age 8. |
