On Tuesday this week Year 3 took part in an Ancient Egyptian workshop led by Haslemere museum. The children participated in a mummification workshop, where they learnt all about removal of the internal organs and storage in Canopic jars.

The children also took part in a selection of self-led activities such as investigating x-Rays of mummies, drawing Egyptian artefacts, discovering more about Shabti (slaves made from stone) and deciphering hieroglyphs.

In the afternoon we mummified our own teddies!
