Pre-Prep visit Windsor Castle

Children in years 1 and 2 enjoyed a trip to Windsor Castle, as part of their 'Turrets and Tiaras' topic.

Year 1 at St Benedict's School, Ealing, were enthralled by the Changing of the Guard!

They had hoped to meet the Queen but sadly Her Majesty was not at home. Seeing the Changing of the Guard was almost as exciting though, and they learned a lot about castles, chivalry, history and heraldry.
