We're at the site of the Battle of Hastings in 1066 and the Abbey site, and

we've taken some students around today to look at the key parts of the Abbey

but also go on to the battlefields and look at what it was like on the

We've got quite a lot of free resources actually that you can use when you come to a visit to battle Abbey,

we've got our lovely teachers kit, we've got

pre and post activities in there as well as resources that you can do on-site.

English Heritage have produced a really, really good resource kit for schools

to help support the learning of the students around this site. It guides me

towards the key areas, it helps me build my teaching around the visit, and our

students found it really useful. It pointed them in the direction of things

that they found really exciting and engaging, and overall we know we're

delighted with the resources they've produced to help students learn.

I'd recommend a visit to battle Abbey for teachers just

because it's a great way to get kids out and about and stand on the site where

history and the battle happened and it's a great way to get your students engaged

The thing that I most enjoyed was probably trying to lift the shields and

the armour and the weapons, which was quite interesting and how heavy they

were and how they managed to  run up and down Britain with that.

It's an amazing place and it's...well, it's a bit better than the classroom!
