![]() Liz, who covered stories around the world for the BBC show in the early 2000s, said: “It has been amazing to come back to my old primary school and see everyone forty years later. “It has brought back so many wonderful memories, I’ve really enjoyed seeing old faces again. “In a small village like this, you find the school really is the heart of the village. So many generations grow up here and you’ll find that children went to the same school as their grandparents. “It is such a lovely feeling of continuation – having such a beautiful school here makes Oakington a wonderful place to grow up in.”Ĭhildren at the Diocese of Ely Multi-Academy Trust (DEMAT) school were treated to a week of festivities to mark the momentous occasion, including by dressing up through the decades from the 1870s onwards.

The Village is a major location in Darkwood's Chapter 1. It is a large area accessed through the Road to the Village location found in the Silent Forest. It contains a shortcut that, once found within the Village, allows the player to warp directly to and from the Silent Forest Hideout. The Village is a rural settlement with a small population. About a dozen or so villagers and infected villagers are spread throughout the houses here. They commonly drop medical supplies, Potatoes, and Jars with Meat. Time Freeze is active while in the Village, which is fortunate, considering it contains a copious amount of loot. Combined with the shortcut to the Hideout, this makes the Village an excellent stocking-up point in the early game. The Village is reliant on The Sow for the majority of its food. Because the Sow is starving, the village is facing a famine. If the player kills the Sow, upon next visit they will see a circle of villagers around the charred corpse of the Sow, praying for its resurrection. Right after entering the Village, its Village Shrine can be seen, which contains a Shiny Stone that the player can choose to steal. A crop field with a lone villager lies nearby.įrom the Village's entrance, two paths lead further in. ![]() One of them leads to Janek's House, where the player can find the Key Covered in Chicken Feces, which has to be recovered at some point to progress further through the game. Initially barricaded, Janek's House is accessed through the tunnels underneath the Village Well. The other path from the entrance leads over a wooden bridge to the Village's center with the Crematorium and the Butcher's House. Here the path splits again, one of them leading to the Mayor's House and the Barn, the other one to the the burned remains of Hanuska's House and finally to the Chicken Lady House. The Crematorium in the center of the Village is a large compound blocked off by a wall. It can be accessed by picking the lock on the barn door. Two bread ovens can be found within, presumably used to burn the dead villagers. A dozen or so burned corpses are found in a locked room, from which can be looted multiple Ropes and Wires.
