Bexhill High London trip

After a three-hour journey, the group met up with ten other schools from across the country for the experience.

They started in the Red Zone of the museum - this included details on 'the wonders of our planet,' which included volcanoes and earthquakes.

Next was the Green Zone, all about the earth's ecology, while after lunch it was time for the the Blue and Orange Zones - animals featured here, from dinosaurs to birds and from whales to mammals.

Pupil Jack Wallwork said: "The building was quite unbelievable, even with hundreds of schoolchildren inside the place it still seemed huge."
