Cave Paintings
As part of our learning about the Stone Age we have studied the importance of cave paintings. The school resource cupboard was turned into a cave for the afternoon and the children had fun decorating it with their own cave paintings. The most exciting part was going in with the lights off and exploring it with their flickering flame, just like it would have been!

Fossil Hunting at Lyme Regis
One of the favourite things we have been learning about in Science is fossils and the famous Palaeontologist Mary Anning. This learning was bought to life when we visited Lyme Regis. We were very lucky to have a Palaeontologist show us around the Museum which is built on the exact site of Mary Anning's house. He then taught the children how to find fossils. They listened to him so well that we set off to the beach they had considerable success, which they found very exciting. I on the other hand did not have their ability!
