A fantastic day learning about the bronze age!

 What an amazing day we have had outside learning about the bronze age. Thank you so much to Mark from the Ancient Wessex Network who made the day so interesting. Mark set up a number of activities and the children enjoyed digging for artefacts, cave painting, weaving, mosaics, pot making and tin casting. As with everything we do in Year 3, we spoke about what happens if we find things difficult or things do not go quite to plan. This was definitely the case when it came to the pot making (a few broke) and the tin casting which was very difficult and did not work for a lot of children. I have said we have some spare pots that the children can have tomorrow if they did not get to take one home today. 

Thank you to our parent volunteers for helping us today 😀

I'm now going to share lots of photos from our brilliant day.
