Report: 24th September - School visits

Good weather heralded the arrival of groups of children visiting from various local schools.  This meant that the site was very busy!

The children were trying out pot washing ...

 
... using the portable sand pit to excavate ,,,


... and taking the Spoilheap Challenge!






The film company were also on-site making a video of the excavations ...


Meanwhile, the site was still having visitors drop by for a talk and a tour ...


... and fifty-six finds trays were out in the fresh air drying ...


... whilst small finds were being bagged, and the bags were pierced by the Holey Nail of the Finds Hut so that the finds didn't sweat ...


Phew!
