The Ground Beneath Our Feet: Part 3
Four local primary schools have taken part in an exciting project funded by The Royal Society. Each class spent two days in North Lincolnshire Museum, exploring the history, geology and science of the ground beneath their feet.
On the second day, the schoolchildren worked with local poet Graeme Williams to bring their learning life, creating poems that drew on their experiences in the Museum.
In the Jurassic Sea gallery, you will see their fabulous poems on display, illustrated by local artist Charlotte Portier-Tock. The children reference their time spent in the Museum galleries, objects from the Collection they handled, science experiments they conducted and questions they asked.
We would like to thank all those involved, especially the incredible work of the children from those schools involved:
- St. Norbert’s Catholic Primary Voluntary Adademy
- Scunthorpe Church of England Primary School
- Bottesford Junior School
- The Riverside Federation
