Year 3 Visit Haslemere Museum

Year 3 visited Haslemere Museum to focus on mummification as part of their Global Citizenship topic of Ancient Egypt.

They were able to take part in a mock mummification process- taking organs out, embalming them and putting them into canopic jars.

There were hieroglyphics to solve, games to play and both replica and real ancient artefacts to handle. 

The highlight of the day was seeing the real mummy who had their shoulder and toes exposed if you were brave enough to take a look!

The day culminated in mummifying their own dolls and teddies, which included wrapping, placing lucky charms and making a Death Mask.
