On Friday May 25th, the class took a trip to Hampton Court Palace, which is known for its beautiful gardens and it's Hedge Maze. The Maze, thought to be planted between 1689 and 1695 it covers a third of an acre and contains half a mile of paths. The Palace has had a long and varied history involving Thomas Wosley -once the Archbiship of York- The Tudors, Henry VIII, William and Mary, and Queen Victoria. This history had led to the belief that there are Ghosts haunting the Palace, and there have even been some citings of paranormal activity.
