Incredible Invictus Trip

On Monday 30th November pupils in Years 5 and 6 were fortunate enough to visit the 'Invictus' exhibition in Gloucester. 

Poems from a world-renowned Gloucester writer, William Henley and signed by South African legend Francois Pienaar are being displayed in the Gloucester City Museum. The poem was written in 1875 by Henley, a former Crypt School pupil, from his hospital bed while he battled against tuberculosis.

Here are some of the thoughts of the pupils that visited the exhibition:
