Children in key stage 2 had a chance to broaden their horizons this week with a trip to Manchester Museum.
We explored the museum's galleries looking at everything from dinosaur remains and ancient Egyptian mummies to artefacts from the stone age and bronze age.
The highlight of the visit was the 'Time Odyssey' experience, where the children used an app to take pictures of items in different galleries and combine these to make artefacts for historical characters. Once each artefact was completed, the character could then travel back to their own time.
Time Odyssey has been created by Art Explora and the British Museum and is available in various museums as well as online. It is free to use and we were very fortunate to be able to run the trip without any cost to families due to this support.
