Year 6’s trip to the Bank of England

On Thursday 14^th March year 6 went to the Bank of England. We went on the Tube and got off at Monument and walked for a few minutes. Finally we got to the Bank of England. The doors were huge and they were really heavy for security reasons. When we went in there was a museum and it was enormous.  After we went to a room that was like a cinema. We met a man called Richard. He talked about what money is and how we use it.  We watched a few clips about how we use money and then Richard asked us a few questions. When that finished we went into the museum and I actually touched real gold!!!! After we had a booklet full of questions and when we answered them.  We came back to school with only the items in our pockets that we had left with and no extra coins! This trip was so fun!!!!!!
