Actress Wendy Craig paid a visit to Warwick to open the Emscote Lawn School Elizabethan
Actress Wendy Craig paid a visit to Warwick to open the Emscote Lawn School Elizabethan Fair. Miss Craig said: " The education of our children is one of the most vital matters in the world today. We must preserve a choice of school in order to cater for every kind of child. We don t want to produce children like cars from an assembly line, lacking individual flair." Miss Craig, star of the TV series, " Not in Front of the Children, " arrived from her mothers home in Kenilworth by an " Elizabethan horse-drawn coach" re-constructed by boys at the school. A ducking stool, quintain(jousting), stocks, madrigals, a pig roast, archery, falconry and the school staff and pupils in full Elizabethan costume provided the period flavour.
