To kick off their new topic, Year 3 became trainee embalmers as they learnt all about the Ancient Egyptian ritual of mummification. No Pharaohs were harmed in the process…only tomatoes! They were cleaned, cut, squeezed, scooped and covered in salt. After 40 days they will be wrapped in linen strips and ready for their journey to the afterlife! We can’t wait to see how well they have been preserved.
