Lunch time

When visiting the British Museum you would have to book a lunch slot in the Ford Centre for Young Visitors (the school lunch room) which also has lockers for storing coats, bags and lunch boxes and has access toilets. We would be given our own table. So, the children will have to bring a packed lunch to the Museum.

Then pupils will discuss what they can learn about Ancient Greece from the various artifacts and sources in the ‘Ancient Greece and Rome’ gallery on the ground floor.

We will specifically discuss the artifacts from;Life in Ancient Egypt, Myths and legends and Olympic games.

The class will be split into three groups, taking turns to view artifacts from each section.
