The children then toured the palace, exploring some of its most iconic spaces, including the magnificent Great Hall and the historic Tudor kitchens. The blazing fire gave them an insight into what life would be like for a ‘spit-boy’ preparing meat for Henry VIII’s entourage. These impressive settings helped them to vividly imagine life during the reign of Henry VIII.
Outside, the boys explored the beautiful grounds, visiting both the flower and vegetable gardens before enjoying a fun Easter egg hunt around the palace. They also watched a game of real tennis, offering a fascinating glimpse into a traditional Tudor sport that is still played today.
The boys fully embraced the experience, making the most of the palace’s interactive trails and rich historical surroundings.
