Le texteA Day at Hampton Court Palace
Last Tuesday, my class visited Hampton Court Palace, on the River Thames, near London. Our guide, Mrs Hill, was dressed like a Tudor lady. First, she showed us the Great Hall. « Henry VIII built this hall between 1532 and 1535, » she explained. « The people who worked for the King had their meals here twice a day. » Then we visited the Tudor kitchens. They were enormous because the King’s court had more than a thousand people!
After lunch, we saw the real tennis court: real tennis was one of Henry VIII’s favourite sports. My friend Jake asked, « Did the King really have six wives? » « Yes, he did, » Mrs Hill answered. « His third wife, Jane Seymour, gave birth to his son Edward here, in 1537. Sadly, she died twelve days later. »
At the end of the day, we got lost in the famous maze. But it isn’t Tudor: it was planted for William III in the 1690s. It was the best school trip of the year!
