# Fossil hunting

   5 January 2022   [Headteacher Blog](https://samlesburyceprimary.co.uk/blog/category/headteacher-blog)

Our new history topic is all about Mary Anning. We learned that she was a famous palaeontologist who made some incredible discoveries! We tried fossil hunting for ourselves and studied them with the magnifying glasses. We even used our dinosaur books to help us identify which dinosaurs we had found.
