It was a fascinating, historical time for our Years 8 and 9 students this week, as both year groups headed to Poole Museum as part of their ARC Curriculum visits. Year 8s are exploring Poole and Year 9s are looking into leisure and tourism. The newly refurbished Poole Museum offered a fascinating insight into the history of Poole and gave students a taste of how tourists are catered for in the town. Great enthusiasm from both year groups!
