P7 travelled to Hillsborough Castle and Gardens today to experience what Christmas would have been like for wealthy Victorians back in a bygone era. 

They learnt all about the first Christmas tree, the original Christmas garden, what games were played and what they would eat. They were delighted too when Father Christmas himself turned up to speak to them! 

The class had great fun navigating their way around the vast gardens to complete the 12 Days of Christmas trail.
