Cherry Class had an exciting visitor this afternoon who was able to tell us the story of Howard Carter's discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922. Not only did we learn lots of brand new history but the children also got to handle a wide range of real and replica artefacts. We enjoyed an Ancient Egyptian funeral game, involving running like ostriches in a relay race. Finally, we carried out our very own mummification and decorated scarab beetles. The children learned so much history and did not stop laughing all afternoon.
