Community Archaeology Programme Northern Ireland (CAPNI)
We were delighted to have been asked by the Centre for Community Archaeology to act as a School Hub to host the Community Archaeology Programme Northern Ireland (CAPNI). The CAPNI School Hub introduces children to the work of archaeologists and the importance of our archaeological heritage, using cross-curricular skills and practical teamwork.
Indeed engaging children with archaeology can help them explore how we piece together the story of the distant past and gain a better understanding of people’s lives through the material remains they have left behind. By engaging pupils in meaningful research, archaeological learning can provide real and cohesive links across a range of curricular areas.
Our pupils In Years 5 & 6 had a wonderful opportunity to partake in a variety of archaeology workshop as part of this programme. We would like to thank CAPNI for providing this unique, practical and engaging experience for our children - such fun had and many wonderful learning opportunities to support learning across the curriculum!
