A group of Year 7 and 8 pupils recently had the exciting opportunity to visit Houghton Hall, where they explored the renowned ‘Antony Gormley: Time Horizon’ exhibition.

The trip offered pupils a unique blend of art, nature, and hands-on learning. Set in the beautifully landscaped gardens of Houghton Hall, the exhibition features 100 sculptures by the world-famous artist Antony Gormley, known for his work with human forms.

The pupils eagerly navigated the grounds, discovering each piece and enjoying the opportunity to interact with the art. Beyond the sculptures, the pupils were also captivated by the stunning surroundings of Houghton Hall.

They loved exploring the meticulously maintained gardens and were particularly amazed by the striking fire fountain in the walled gardens. Both pupils and staff described the day as brilliant, with the combination of art, nature, and exploration leaving a lasting impression on everyone involved.
