Year 4 Trip West Stow

On February 5th, Year 4 had a fantastic trip to West Stow as part of their studies in History on Anglo-Saxons!  The children were introduced to the village by Stephanie, who told us all about the different buildings.  We visited each one and investigated them thoroughly!  Our guide also showed us her log boat she was carving with traditional tools such as axes.

Then, we ate lunch together before heading into the Anglo-Saxon Museum!  Inside, there were artefacts and information as well as a secret chest of treasures.  We sat in small groups and brought out different objects which the children had to guess the use of.  There were lots of interesting guesses but the children were quite surprised by some of the answers!

All in all, the Year 4’s really enjoyed their day!  We had fantastic weather, brilliant volunteer helpers and a wonderful experience!
