Year 3 visit The Natural History Museum

Year 3 had a brilliant time at The Natural History Museum last week. We started our day with an exciting train journey which allowed us to try out the new Elizabeth Line. When we first arrived we explored the Volcano and Earthquake area to consolidate our learning from our recent Geography lessons. We even went on an earthquake simulator which was a bit scary! We then Looked at ignious, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks and saw some stunning minerals. We had a bit of spare time to have a look at other areas of the museum; some of us saw the mammals and dinosurs, whilst others investigated the fossils and creepy crawlies. After working up an appetite we enjoyed our lunch before making the return train journey to school, happy but exhausted!
