Y1 had a very special visitor from Beamish Museum today. Hannah told us what life was like in the 1950s and brought some objects and toys from that decade. @BeamishLearning

Year 5 had a great start to the term, we had Mr Martin come and visit us from @Beamish_Museum to introduce our new DT project- Crank it up! We looked at different 2D and 3D structures and evaluated their stability. We can't wait to use our knowledge to design our own Crane!

Year 2 had a blast at @beamish_museum, diving into North East England's heritage! From a 1900s street to the 1950s town, they explored history first-hand. Highlights included a sweet-making demo, a tram ride, and a visit to a real coal mine. #LivingMemory #HistoryInTheMaking
