The Staffordshire Hoard

In History club, we have been investigating the Staffordshire Hoard, the biggest collection of Anglo Saxon treasure ever found. The children were amazed that the discovery was made by a man and his metal detector in a field just outside Lichfield, which is just up the road. 

We acted out and role-played how the farmer and archaeologists would have felt making the discovery and this week started designing our own Anglo Saxon brooches. 

Well done, History Detectives!
