Year 1 visit the Scott Polar Institute to learn about explorers

As part of their topic on explorers, Year 1 visited the Scott Polar Institute. They learned all about Antarctica and heard a story about three explorers who were sent by the Natural History Museum to find out whether dinosaurs were related to penguins.

Afterwards they became research scientists and looked at all the displays in the museum, drawing and writing about things they would choose to pack if they were to set off to explore Antarctica.
