In the afternoon the children performed a dance based on life by the river Nile - it was a fantastic day! They are looking forward to learning more about this exciting civilisation during the rest of the term.

Year 4's Exciting Egyptian Experience
Last week Year 4 were treated to an information packed morning of stories and drama all about the life and death of the Ancient Egyptians. The children got really stuck in, dressing up in costume, trying out bread, wigs !! and taking part in an elaborate buriel that included a wrapped mummy and a ceremony to determine whether the mummy should be allowed to enter the afterlife. Fortunately his heart was light and weighed less than a feather so he was allowed in - otherwise the Devourer would have eaten his heart!
