Year 4 Visit the Horniman Museum

March 17, 2014
Year 4 recently visited the Horniman Museum in South London. To compliment their class topic, pupils took part in some workshops about India. Year 4 thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to explore Indian artefacts, participate in a puppet show and engage with Indian traditions. After the workshops, the children were fascinated to see some of the many and varied objects from around the world collected by Frederick John Horniman. The long journey across London was well worth it: this brilliant museum offered a curriculum focussed, fun and enriching day out for our Year 4 pupils.
