Pharaohs!

In this topic we will learn about life 5000 years ago, back in ancient Egypt. We will take an imaginary cruise along the Nile, to enter a world full of mysteries, mummies and kings!

On our journey, we will learn about life along the fertile riverbank and discover fascinating facts about ancient Egyptian culture.

We will become archaeologists to help unravel the secrets of ancient tombs, using historical sources and artefacts to find out about the powerful pharaohs and gods.

Finally we will become apprentices of the chief embalmer, learning how to prepare a body for its journey to the afterlife.
