Abbey school walkabout

• Year 5 pupils from Abbey went on a walk around
  Shaftsbury on the 3rd of July. Heres the route
  we took.

• We started at saint James church.

• We walked from our school (the abbey) to st James
  church next door. We looked around the grave yard
  and thought about the sights, sounds and smells
  that we could find. Some people did rubbings of
  the engraved letters on grave stones. We also
  thought about the space of the area and what
  might make it better.

• There were big walls either side of the lane
  which made it secret and hidden

  strong scent .
