He spoke to the children about the Pharaohs and the children were shown the mummification process. The Egyptians used 'mummification' so that the skin and flesh of a corpse could be preserved. In the afternoon, the pupils made bread and were given the opportunity to have a go at mummifying a tomato! Well done, J2...you all looked amazing!
