Lincolnshire Young Archaeologists Club

Updates coming in the new year!

Lincolnshire Young Archaeologists Club is a drop-off club for children aged 8-16 years with an interest in history and archaeology.

We are affiliated with Young Archaeologists Club nationally which is run by the Council for British Archaeologists.

The group is being run by Heritage Lincolnshire, with DBS checked volunteers.  A copy of our risk assessment and safeguarding policy can be seen on request.  This is usually a ‘drop off’ club, and as such strict adult to child ratios will be maintained.  Attendance to the club can only be confirmed by filling in the membership and covid agreement forms and paying the term fee on our website.  You will then receive a confirmation email.

Curious to Know More?

We had a great time at our first Summer Term Archaeology Club last year on Saturday 30th April 2022.

 
We worked with LAG and Jane Young to explore ceramics. The members were introduced to and got to handle lots of different types of pottery, including several types of 'puzzle' or trick jugs. They then decorated their own plant pots, broke them (with appropriate PPE of course!) and practiced reconstruction by putting them back together again.
 
Looks like they had a great time!
