THE
Anubis! Ancient goodness
OH MUMMY
Last Friday, Year 5 had a visit from an Egyptian archaeologist to teach us all about Ancient Egypt. The children came to school dressed as Ancient Egyptians to make the day more authentic and they all looked superb! We looked at how the Egyptians lived, caught food and built their houses, along with finding out the weapons they used and how they made them. We learnt about the Egyptian measurement system; played an Egyptian game and completed a quiz. As well as this, we also found out about how people were mummified and completed a funeral procession service. We had a fantastic day and have learnt lots of information to help us with our topic this term. LIGHTS OUT HISTORY SQUAD On the 11th September 2017, the new Year 6 had the pleasure of watching a play by two marvellous actors from the company, History Squad. During the play, our information thirsty brains gobbled up all of the facts. By the end of the play, we understood what life was like in Britain during the Second World War. We all enjoyed the play (but our bottoms were sore after 1hr 40 mins on the floor!). We would love to see the actors again in the near future. Thanks to Charlie & Tallulah in 6V for the story.
