The club gives children ages 8 – 16 a chance to get their hands dirty doing real archaeology — handle historical artefacts, meet archaeologists and try your hand at traditional crafts, all while gaining skills and making friends!
From investigating historical poo to taking part in a real archaeological dig at Fulham Palace, each session has its own exciting topic to discover.
-
Sessions take place in the education centre on one Saturday each month (apart from Aug and Dec) from 10.15 – 12.15.
-
Students attend independently.
-
Students should come dressed appropriately for outdoor activities.
