It was a pleasure to take Year 5 to Charmouth today.
They were so keen to hunt that it took us a very long time to walk along the beach to our destination. The excitement, awe and wonder that took place in the time we were on the beach made every second of the journey worth it. The sun came out to add to the magic and the discoveries that the children made were incredible: Belemites, Ammonites, Beef Rock, Beef Amonites, Crinoids, Calcite Ammonites and Fools Gold.
The Fossil Guides commented on how enthusiastic, polite and focused they were.
We hope you have enjoyed sharing the excitement in the samples that they have brought home with them.
Unfortunately not the ones with chocolate chips.
