It was so exciting to launch this workshop! It’s taken a lot of hard work and I’m very proud of the learners engaged with the material. Here’s to many more ‘Mesopotamian Society’ workshops! Thank you @Classical_Assoc for the support!
After lunch, we ended the day we the launch of our Mesopotamian Society workshop funded by @Classical_Assoc! Learners created their own cylinder seals, made a top trump deck of demons and deities, made ‘tributes’ for the King (aka Mr Smith) & became Mesopotamian Drs!

Volunteers gain a number of skills with SHARE with Schools, all of which are evidenced in the certificate. To gain this, volunteers attend at least 3 training sessions, at least 6 hours of volunteering, write a blog post and complete some self-reflection on their career journey.
