Class 2 - Stone Age Day

On Monday, Class Two had a truly memorable day stepping back in time for an exciting Stone Age workshop, led by a visiting company and enjoyed entirely outdoors. It was a beautiful autumn day, and the perfect weather made the experience even more special.

The children spent the day fully immersing themselves in Stone Age life, taking part in a wide range of practical, hands-on experiences. They learned about and tried important survival skills such as fire lighting, flint knapping, foraging and camp building, gaining a real insight into how people lived thousands of years ago. The children also had the chance to examine a fascinating collection of Stone Age artefacts, including animal hides, bones and handmade tools, which helped bring their learning to life.

In the afternoon, the children worked together to build their own Stone Age camp, using teamwork and creativity to shape their ideas into a convincing prehistoric settlement. One of the highlights of the day was making Stone Age bread and cooking it over the fire before tasting the results together.

It was a wonderful, enriching experience that sparked curiosity, excitement and plenty of discussion. The children were engaged throughout and clearly loved every minute of the workshop. A brilliant day was had by all.
