Year 2 enjoyed a wonderful day visiting The Captain Cook Birthplace Museum in Stewart Park, Middlesbrough as part of their 'Land Ahoy' topic. The children got to spend time learning about James Cook's early life before discovering more about his voyages at sea. We handled a range of artefacts that helped the children to know more about what life would have been like and to learn more about the places he discovered. After a quick lunch, the children engaged in a range of practical activities which included: observational drawing, aboriginal artwork, dressing up in various characters and quill writing. Everyone had a fantastic day, well done children!
