Egyptian Day

Last week, Year 4 received visitors from Wantage Museum who lead very engaging and enlightening sessions about Ancient Egyptians. Children had the opportunity to re-enact the Weighing of the Heart ceremony where the Gods decided if you were allowed to enter the underworld - something which Ancient Egyptians also practised when someone died. They also explored ancient artefacts, and became priests turning each other into Mummies.

Year 4's Tudor Day!

Year 4 had a Tudor day last week with lots of cooking. Thank you to the parents who helped the children make Pottage and Jumble biscuits. We finished the afternoon with a feast where we ate the fruits of our labour and had a really tasty (or yucky!) treat!
