Greenhill Primary Palaeontologists
Children in Year 1 at Greenhill Primary (Bury, Greater Manchester), have been busy learning all about dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals this term. A team member was given the opportunity to visit the school to work with the eager, young palaeontologists over the course of the morning. The first part of the session was based in the spacious hall, the second part of the workshop, which involved dinosaur footprint measuring and finding fossils, took place in the well-appointed and very tidy classroom.

As an extension exercise, our dinosaur expert challenged the children to draw a dinosaur and to label its body parts including the skull. During the wet play, Nayaab drew and labelled a beautiful pink and blue dinosaur which was then presented to Everything Dinosaur at the conclusion of the morning’s activities.
