Religious Studies Department

Beautiful Barcelona

In October 2015, the Religious Studies Department organised a trip to Barcelona. We visited the Sagrada Familia, Park Guell, the mountain monastery of Montserrat and many other wonderful places.

“My favourite memory of the trip was visiting Park Guell, where we were able to see the intricately designed buildings and statues designed by Gaudi.”

Sheila Chanda, Year 11 “My favourite part of the Barcelona trip would have to be the visit to the Sagrada Familia. It was so beautiful and it was unbelievable that it was still unfinished.”

Year 7 Faith Trail

Year 7 spent a day in Preston, where we visited a Mandir, the Minster and a Gurdwara temple. “It was really interesting learning about all the different religions and going to their places of worship.” Feryal Mirza 7G “It was very interesting to see the contrast between the buildings. The Mandir was warm, cosy and small with a fancy golden shrine, whereas the church was grand and echoey.” Eleanor Haighton 7G
