On Tuesday 25th February, our Year 3 pupils had a very special visitor from the Natural History Museum who took them on a journey back in time to the time of the Dinosaurs!

The Travelling Natural History Museum is the UK’s biggest and best provider of Dinosaur and Natural History Workshops for schools, using real dinosaur artefacts, fossils and a huge display of life size models.

Run by dinosaur experts (or as the kids call them, Dino Man or Dino Girl!) the children took part in an educational dinosaur workshop with a major difference. This is not your usual ‘don’t touch’ or ‘please be quiet’ experience, with pupils rushed quickly by displays to catch the coach home in time. It’s an interactive, educational workshop that includes opportunities for hands-on experience with real dinosaur relics and fossils.

The children thoroughly enjoyed the experience, which you will hear in this short video. To hear some of our children talk about the workshop, please click on the play button.
