What's in a name?
Hello. The Education Team at Bushey Museum have prepared some interesting activities designed for primary aged children to do over the 2020 Summer Holidays. These activities are about 'Place Names in Bushey'. There are 6 activities: your can either do them in order, starting with No. 1 - or start by picking any one as you wish!
