Activity sessions
The Neolithic Days are based around the de Quetteville Estates Neolithic House and allow the pupils to experience a number of neolithic activities. It is recommended that schools come class by class and as there are open fires a ration of one adult per six children is required. The format of each day is extremely adaptable. (see Teachers notes)
