Year 2 Yorkshire Adventure to Bolton Abbey

On Thursday Year 2 went to Bolton Abbey for our Yorkshire Adventure. When we got off the minibus we saw lots of ducks. Mr Madeley told us the rules for walking. On our walk we saw the memorial fountain to Frederick Cavendish, then we went in the graveyard to see his grave and find out more about him. Then we walked around the Abbey ruins. After this we walked along the river side and we saw a blue helicopter landing at the Devonshire Arms. We had a picnic lunch surrounded by dandelions. We went across a bridge. In one field we had a challenge to bring back a dandelion clock with all its seeds still on. Mr Madeley told us about seeds being spread by the wind. We walked through the woodland, up and down some steep hills. We saw a tree with lots of coins stuck into the trunk. Eventually we crossed a bridge over the river and got back to the minibus. On the way home some people were trying to sleep but they were kept awake by the singing. We had a very good day.
