Many thanks, it was very well done and very educational (not least for me), I was especially pleased by the saltworks video as I remember going there on a school trip myself and had hoped to take Peregrine for a visit this year but of course, have not been able to.

Great Fieldtrip to Whitman’s Quarry

I had a lovely time
2 May 2016 I had a lovely time behind the scenes at the Natural History Museum last week, and I really enjoyed seeing all those things and learning lots more! I couldn’t believe time went so fast! I loved the trilobites on the slab, and still am amazed how big some amonites were, and how small Bryozoans were! And I felt so lucky to see the dinosaur fossils and fish fossils too. There were so many things to see! Please can you...

Just a short note to say thank you
2 May 2016 Just a short note to say thank you so much for the museum visit on Friday. I have to say we were amazed last year when we were allowed to see the William Smith geology map at Lyme Regis. To be able to visit ‘behind the scenes’ at the NHM was another ‘once in a lifetime’ experience – I’m not sure how you are going to beat that next year! Tonia, Tim, Ettienne and Cameron...
