Talking to an Historian

The Kestrels enjoyed asking questions to an historian from the Museum in the Park to learn more about the history of Avening. They had carefully studied artefacts from the local woollen industry which helped them think of more questions they wanted help to answer. The historian found their questions very interesting and was able to do some more research to be able to answer them. Finding out more about the past helped them notice more similarities and differences between lives then and now. They finished the session by trying some weaving on the school gate!
