Year 3’s School Trip to Butser Ancient Farm 
On Thursday 17^th November Year 3 went on a school trip to Butser Ancient Farm to learn more about the Stone Age to Iron Age as part of our project. We had a tour of the different homes including a roundhouse with a real fire in the middle. We also built a wattle fence, excavated to find different artefacts and made our own jewellery. We had lots of fun and learnt lots of fascinating facts! 

“I really enjoyed making the spiral jewellery and pretending to be an archaeologist by excavating.” William T 

“I really liked looking at the Iron Age houses with the ditches for protection and how they improved from the Stone Age houses!” Oscar J 

“I found it really interesting to find out how their houses were built in the Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age.” Stella I 

“I really liked building the wattle fence using hazel saplings.” Ruby G
