Year 6 Natural History Museum

Yesterday, the enthusiastic pupils of Years 5 and 6 embarked on an

exciting adventure to the Natural History Museum. 

Our journey began in Chelmsford and took us through the bustling streets of London. As we traversed through the iconic landmarks of London, the students were wide-eyed and captivated by the city's charm. From the majestic Tower Bridge to the historic Buckingham Palace, our sightseeing tour became an impromptu history lesson, with every corner unveiling tales of the past.

Upon arriving at the Natural History Museum, the students were greeted by the towering entrance and an air of anticipation. The fossil exhibits transported us back in time, showcasing the incredible diversity of prehistoric life. The intricate details of fossils sparked numerous questions, igniting our curiosity. 

 

One of the highlights of our museum visit was the volcano exhibition. The interactive displays and simulations allowed the students to experience the raw power of volcanic eruptions. From understanding the science behind volcanic activity to witnessing the impact on landscapes.

Quotes from the children:

‘I really enjoyed the trip, especially seeing the Mary Anning exhibition’.

‘It was really fascinating to see the different dinosaurs, fossils and volcano exhibition’.
