This was a very good visit with lots of hand-on experience about Neolithic life. Children were able to use their learning in their writing and history work. Next time I will book the visit for slightly later in the topic as there was a little confusion between Mesolithic and Neolithic when we were working in class and it is good to go through chronologically.
