Magnificent, marvellous museum - by Edie Cooper

On Tuesday 16th December we had a marvellous museum. It was packed with lots of amazing stuff like swords, shields, torks, broaches and round houses.
We also made a cave art quiz so the parents can challenge themselves. The most exiting bit was the mammoth because it made all the parents come over to look at it. Some people made comments like Mikey in year 5, he wrote, 'I enjoyed the village because Rory really made it stand out because the way he explained it was outstanding!'.I think that we worked very hard at making all the things in the museum and I would like to do it again.

Marvellos , Manley Park Museum!

On Tuesday 16th December, 8 year old pupils had a museum and not just the kids came …there were mums and dads. Every single guest had a curious look on their face. However, before the museum year 3 nervously panicked because loads of parents walked in the museum.

The year 3 pupils happily greeted the mums and dads and showed them around the museum. I felt so tired of curating every single piece of our museum. Amazingly ,nearly everyone came to the artefacts (especially the patents they were so proud.) Did you know year 3 built the mammoth in 1 day? Also, a photographer came and we ended up on the front cover of a newspaper.

An amazing quote was “what I enjoyed was the shields because they were so detailed I just wanted to keep them” and that was by Hamza in 5NM.

The Amazing Manley Park Museum

Yesterday year 3 opened its doors and did a museum with lots of facts and a big, hairy mammoth and lots of cave art and torcs and shields swords.

There were too many parents and lots of explaining going on and  there was lots of perants  who wanted to learn all about the Iron Age so we had  to teach them.

Rana: “I think that the Year 3’s tried their best and they put lots of effort into their really good artwork. I think everyone should get a merit.”

Ibrheem: “I enjoyed the mammoth, it was a lifetime memory.”

Cool, Amazing Manley Park Museum!

Yesterday on Tuesday 6th December we made the best museum the school has seen.  A lot of people came then I thought. We made so much stone age to iron age tools and a model of the village and a torc.

Shockingly, so many people came to our museum and we talked and talked, it was very fun.  My mum was very proud. Everyone loved it! Amazingly, the adults knew a lot of stuff. Did you know that they left a stamp so their family could know?

Our Busy, Fantastic Museum!

Yesterday, we opened our magnificent, amazing museum and our mums and dads came. We were so excited that we couldn’t stop. A famous person came, he was a photographer and he took a photo of us! We were going to be so famous people in America also saw us it was amazing!

First, we quickly laid all the artefacts on the table including the torcs, weapons, swords, shields, helmets, round houses and the brown, furry mammoth! They learned so much that they were amazed!

Did you know that Celts are better than Romans?

Everyone loved our museum.
