Pupils in Year 3 visited the Museum of London, to enhance their work on the History topic of ‘Stone Age to Iron Age’. They were able to see primary source examples: of woolly mammoth tusks, sabre tooth tiger teeth, bronze torcs and many more fabulous items. The children completed interactive activity sheets, for example, they  described how a flint arrow head felt.

Next the children watched an immersive shadow puppet show, describing life and telling stories from the Stone Age to the Iron Age. The pupils were able to confidently answer the questions that the presenter asked and demonstrate their extensive knowledge of this period in History.

The children were an absolute credit to their parents, the school and themselves. They really enjoyed their day and it was wonderful to visit one of the fantastic museums in London once again. Educational visits are such an important part of Eastbrook’s  curriculum and the experiences the children have whilst on an educational visit reinforce in class learning.
