On Thursday 18th January, Year 4 visited Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery to find out about the Anglo Saxons.
We started the day exploring the many levels of the museum. After lunch, we visited the Staffordshire Hoard, which is the largest hoard of gold ever found in Litchfield and it belonged to the Anglo Saxons.
During our workshop, we took part in many activities to understand how archaeologists dug up the artefacts and also how the conservation team at the museum recreated some of the pieces of jewellery to be displayed in the museum for everyone to enjoy.
