My final stop!! @HighcliffeC to meet Louise, volunteer coordinator and Anne - shop volunteer - as part of their #BigHelpOut I think we have worked out I could be a room guide - a lot of talking and not scared of people!

What a fantastic day Year 1 have had visiting Highcliffe Castle!The Squirrels enjoyed having a glimpse into castle life…from taking on the role as kitchen servants and imagining how life once was to dressing up as lords and ladies…it has been a wonderful day! @HighcliffeC
