January is about discovering the Stone Age!
Welcome to the stone age! What can you discover together about this age of pre-history? Walk across our fabric field to see if you can find fossils or bones! You'll even do your own cave painting!
Fun Fact! Before houses, humans lived in caves!
February will see you back in Ancient Egypt!
Explore inside our Egyptian pyramid. Can you find our mummified cats? Cats were very special to Ancient Egyptians, who wanted to take them into the Afterlife. Take home with you your Egyptian Collar that you will be colouring in!
Did you know Ancient Egyptian bakers sometimes kneaded bread dough with their feet!
March will be exploring the Romans!
The Romans built a wall all the way across England. Can you build a wall like theirs? Along the way, can you find Roman treasures buried in our fabric field? In this session you will make your own mosaic fish!
Can you believe We still use some roads that the Romans built!
April is all about the Medieval Times!
Medieval castles were like towns where lots of different jobs were done. Can you spot some medieval artefacts? Have a go at using a metal detector! You will be colouring and folding a medieval castle wall!
Did you know in castles, football was banned and archery was compulsory!
