Year 4 thoroughly enjoyed a trip to two museums in Hull today.
Streetlife Museum of Transport
We all climbed aboard at the Streetlife Museum of Transport and enjoyed all the sights, sounds and smells of the past. There are over 200 years of transport history on display. The children walked down a 1940s high street, boarded a tram and enjoyed the pleasures of a carriage ride. Our big topic ‘Transport‘ starts next week so today’s trip was a great introduction to transportation through the ages. Enjoy our photos with your child. Question them about the visit.
From ‘bone shaking’ early bicycles to horse drawn carriages fit for royalty, the museum was packed with exhibits from various periods of time.
Hull and East Riding Museum
In this museum, we entered a world where 235 million years of history has been brought to life. From majestic mammoths to Saxon invaders, Year 4 travelled through history up to modern Britain. Walking through an Iron Age village, entering a Roman bath house and looking at the stunning mosaics were just a few of the displays to stop and study. We discovered a mysterious crew of wooden warriors and saw some medieval treasures!
