Autumn Term: Awesome Archaeologists!

In our first term in Birch class, we learnt all about the Anglo-Saxons. We worked as archaeologists to excavate precious artefacts found buried on the Sutton Hoo estate in Suffolk.

We made sure to wear gloves and carefully brush away the soil so that we didn’t damage any of the fragile objects!

Then we pieced together what we had found and tried to guess what each artefact could be and who they would have belonged to. Were they rich? Were they powerful? Were they religious?

What do you think?
