Topic in Year 3

Year 3 have been learning about Ancient Egypt in their Topic lessons. They have spent time researching Ancient Egyptian forms of entertainment including Hounds and Jackals and Senet.

They had a wonderful opportunity to play Senet in pairs, which might be the world’s oldest boardgame, dating back to around 3100 BC. The children have used this to design their very own boardgames themed around Ancient Egypt.
