As part of our Rocks and Fossils topic, Year 3/4 were fortunate enough to attend a virtual workshop with Dr Emma Nicholls, a palaeontologist who was part of the team that discovered the 'Rutland Ichthyosaur' and a senior curator at the Horniman Museum. We were able to hear first-hand of Emma's experiences of the excavation, which was very exciting as we have recently written our own newspaper report on this. Dr Emma talked us through the process and shared lots of never seen before photos and exhibits before finishing off with a Q&A session. The most fascinating piece of information discovered was that the Ichthyosaur was not a dinosaur, but in fact, a reptile!
