Our Day Out- Liverpool Maritime Museum

On Wednesday 23rd January 2002 68 Year 9 students went on a trip to the Liverpool Maritime Museum. They looked at exhibitions from Transatlantic slavery through to Liverpool Life. These photographs show the students from one of the two groups.

So off we go! "Where are we Sir?" Well, if you look to your left you will see our school!

Two of the community elders who spoke of their experiences to years nines came on our coach. On the right is an exhibit from the Transatlantic exhibition.

Students completing their worksheets in the Slavery exhibition.

Mentor and student research together. On the right you can see what conditions on the middle passage would have been like.

So you can see the highest area of headroom on a slave ship. Some people just can't help it when a camera is pointed at them.

In the Liverpool Life Museum students had a demonstration of Printing.

And finally - A GREAT DAY OUT!
