On Tuesday 4th October, Year 4 were entertained by Tutankhamun, Anubis, Nefertari, Daphne Witherspoon the explorer and an Egyptian Countess. In an interactive workshop, the children created the River Nile with visual aids, completed a washing line time line, showing the main historical periods from 3000BC to today and they met ancient Egyptian people in the inner chamber of a tomb. Despite warning, the children left the workshop with a terrible dancing curse, which meant when they heard Egyptian music they started dancing. Let's hope it wears off soon!
