Shang Dynasty Day

Year 6 participated in a “Shangtastic” history day! David, our expert teacher, centred the session on objects, artwork and archives from Durham University’s incredible collection. We used Shang symbols to write messages oracle bones before designing bronze pots with animal handles, taotie faces and patterns. The day concluded with an entertaining drama of the end of the Shang era. What a fabulous day of learning it was!
