Ancient Egyptians at Norwich Castle Museum


Last Thursday, year 5 classes visited Norwich Museum to learn more about the Ancient Egyptians. 
The children looked at some beautiful artefacts, most of which were approximately 3000 years old. They learnt about the mummification process and were lucky enough to see a real Egyptian mummy. 
The children also had the opportunity to dress in clothes similar to those worn by Egyptian villagers, imagining they were living at the time. 
he children learnt about the significance and design of jewellery and created their own necklaces to take home. 
Overall, a wonderful day was had by all, albeit a little on the warm side!
