Monday 18th October

Year 6, Reception and Year 4/5 had a great day digging a variety of sites on the main school field.  The weather remained dry - although we all ended up muddy!  Josh, Emily and James (from Year 6) spoke to Radio Norfolk about our Time Team dig this afternoon.

Thursday 21st October

Year 1 and Year 3/4 had fun digging today.  Poor Year 1 went out in the freezing cold this morning to see what they could find - and managed to dig up loads of white china.  Year 3/4 went out this afternoon and found a selection of objects - including part of an old thermometer!

An exhibition was held in the playground after school today to show what we have found this week.
