Form 3 experienced all things Anglo-Saxon on a visit to Butser Ancient Farm recently, which complemented their Humanities studies.

They enjoyed a snack around the fire in a reconstructed house; Butser is an archaeological site where they experiment by rebuilding ancient and medieval buildings.

The pupils also visited Butser’s Roman house to experience for themselves how life for Britons changed after the Roman left, leaving Anglo-Saxons in power.

Form 3 tried their hands at medieval pottery, making wattle walls and even became archaeologists themselves!
