Museum of Liverpool Visit
The boarders visited the Museum of Liverpool and learned all about the history of Liverpool. One of the most fascinating areas of the Museum was the Wondrous Place gallery. It is a gallery for internationally recognised talents across music, sport, cinema, and TV. Who knew so many talented people came from Liverpool?

Inspiring author Seth Burkett visits Liverpool College
Breaking all stereotypes, Seth Burkett is an author with a difference. As a young, professional footballer, who played for Brazil, Seth was inspired by the autobiographies of Vinnie Jones and Peter Crouch and began to realise that you don’t need to choose between being sporty or being a writer – you can do both. He shared his experiences both as a ghost writer and as a children’s author. His inspiring story of rejection and resilience was truly inspirational. Throughout his visit, Seth ran a series of Writing workshops with pupils from Chapter 5 and Chapter 7, giving his top tips and tricks for creative writing.

Chapter 8 Architecture Workshop
After analysing a range of architectural designs from around the world and assessing each in terms of functionality, beauty and originality, Chapter 8 Wilton Scholars were invited to develop their own design skills by creating their own vision of a house of the future. The young designers’ objective was to cast fresh eyes on the housing crisis caused by over population and take into account location, sustainability and creativity. Pupils not only made sketches of their ideas, they also created 3D models and then presented their concepts to peers, highlighting the unique features of their designs.
