On
Thursday 24th October our class visited Castell Henllys, an Iron Age
Hill Fort in Pembrokeshire. It took us a long time to get there, but
it was well worth it when we did.
We
found out lots about the everyday life of the Celts in Wales. We went
inside a ‘roundhouse’ to discover how Celtic people cooked, made
bread and made clothes. We made our own bracelets out of ‘willow’
and we were able to try weaving a basket.
We
also found out about the different materials used to make Celtic
roundhouses. We had a go of using ‘wattle and daub’ ourselves and
it was very messy indeed!!
Before
we left we all had our faces painted to make us look like Celtic
warriors.
We
would like to thank all the parents and grandparents who came along
to help us.
A
good time was had by all!
