Kind Edward Mine Visit

In September, our Trust Council visited the King Edward Mine.  The aim of the visit was for members of the Council from to learn about the history of Cornish Mining, how it may have or may have not contributed to environmental issues and to learn about the future of Cornish mining. The pupils took part in various workshops throughout the day and even managed to experience being inside of real engine house working. Everybody had a tour of the mine and of the grounds and we listened to a presentation from John Polglase, an ex-miner and teacher from the local area.
