HALF DAY (approx 2 hours)

A fun and interactive way to engage your pupils with historical enquiry and chronology!

It’s time for some hands-on archaeology as you discover the way we find out about the past. Be part of a human timeline, uncover the secrets of a waste bin and get up to your elbows in and archaeological dig as you reveal the secrets that could lie beneath your fee. A ‘Dig it’ challenge takes you onto the galleries at the museum and a new discovery completes the session. Can you dig it?
