In July this year, we welcomed Year 6s from Elm Wood School to Bell House for our first ever school visit! The pupils learned all about bees and how honey is made on a trip round our beehives, and helped us make some beautiful quilts for premature babies at King’s Hospital.

They also explored the house itself, learning about Bell House and its place in local, national and global history, before bringing these histories to life in our creative writing sessions! This series, Elm Wood Writes Bell House, showcases the best of the poetry, diary- and story-writing from our time with the Year 6s. Read on for the first of these fantastic pieces:
