Fantastic to see our very own Dr Carlo Meloro sharing his expertise with Year 3 students @st_michaels_ham Inspiring the next generation of palaeontologists with hands-on fossil exploration. 🦴🔍 #STEM #Fossils #Outreach
Year 3 we’re very lucky this afternoon. To end our Rocks and Fossils topic, Mr Meloro who is a palaeontologist came to visit us. He brought lots of fossils which were fascinating! We made our own observations and learnt lots about palaeontology. #SMITHScience
