Year 3 had a wonderful visit to Palace Green in order to consolidate their topic of Stoneage to Ironage. We took part in different activities.

We looked at, described and drew Prehistoric artefacts.

We took part in activity trail around the museum which involved games, weaving and detective work.

We looked at the skeleton of a prehistoric man and used clues to identify his age and status.

We designed our own Ironage coin using embossing paper and tools.
