Yesterday, Year 3 pupils enjoyed an Egyptian themed day, when they took part in a range of creative activities.

To start their day, they studied Egyptian pattern before creating their own tunics using fabric pens and pillowcases. After lunch, dressed in their tunics, the children tried their hand at other Egyptian projects. They made bright suncatchers of Egyptian scenes and carefully used hieroglyphs to create bookmarks on real papyrus paper. A favourite activity was decorating a sarcophagus to hold precious possessions – these were decorated with jewels and the level of care and detail was wonderful.
