Year 5 - British Museum

On Thursday 26th February, Year 5 had an amazing time at the British Museum.
 
 
 

The main purpose of our visit was to see the Anglo- Saxon artefacts unearthed at Sutton Hoo.

 




We also had a glimpse into our upcoming topic of Ancient Egypt, were we saw ‘Ginger’ the naturally mummified Gabelian man and the British Museum’s fabulous collection of mummies.
 

 
After a spot of lunch we attended a workshop about being ‘Museum Detectives’ at the Samsung Digital Centre...
 
where we undertook a range of activities including researching and reporting about differing aged artefacts.
