Current Learning

 

Our topic for the term will start with the Ancient Egyptians, focusing on a timeline of major events in the history of this fascinating civilisation.  We will go on to compare these with what life was like in Britain during that period of time and learn about Egyptologists, pharaohs mummification and the ceremony of death and the pyramids. We have been very lucky to secure a visit from Mr Egypt at the end of September - a fascinating Egyptologist, with a wealth of real life experience as an archaeologist who regularly works in Cairo. If you would like to do some of your own research about Ancient Egypt, then please feel free to use the following links:
