Museum Visit

What a superb visit from Doncaster Museum this morning! The children got so much from this well planned out session from the museum, who had tailored the workshop exactly to our guiding question and to the learning targets we have been focusing on this term. We can’t say thank you enough for this! The children had lots of objects that would have been found on a train to explore – what a treat when we usually aren’t allowed to touch very old and precious objects! I personally took a shine to the butter stamp. I wonder what your favourite item was? It was fascinating to gain such an insight into how the collection at Doncaster Museum was discovered and consider what impact the rail industry had on Doncaster, both on the town and their people. (Pictures to follow – I am having some trouble with getting them onto the blog! I am so sorry!) #LovePlover
