IMMERSION AFTERNOON

We began our topic with an "Immersion afternoon". We had numerous artefacts from the Rhondda Heritage Park as well as some artefacts already in school.  We used the carousel method to explore all of the artefacts on each table and quickly realised that they were all related to mining. We had so many questions and these are on our classroom display
