Year 9 Reach New Heights As They Explore Iconic Landmark
3 October 2025
Year 9 pupils this week had an opportunity to visit the magnificent St Walburge's Church in Preston as part of a cross-curricular trip to see how History and RE have impacted our local area.
We were fortunate to have Maria, a parishioner at St Walburge's, taking us on a tour of the church and many of its beautiful and historic features.
Pupils and staff, including Principal Mr Eastham, were also fortunate enough to be able to climb the steeple, the tallest on any parish church in England.
It's safe to say that many pupils found the 150+ steps a challenge, but the spectacular views over Preston were well worth it.
