The children explored the world of woolly mammoths and learnt how people survived using the natural resources around them. They got hands-on by building a fire and toasting marshmallows (from the comfort of inside the school), this was lots of fun and gave them a taste of Stone Age life. They also became prehistoric artists, creating their own Stone Age-inspired artwork using natural materials and experimenting with spices to create different colours, textures and effects. A fantastic way to bring history to life through creativity, exploration and plenty of memorable experiences! ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2856.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2858.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2859.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2863.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2866.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2878.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2884.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2885.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2886.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2893.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2896.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2901.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2902.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2914.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2915.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2916.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2930.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2935.jpeg) ![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/stone-age-year-3/IMG_2939.jpeg) [ Little Feet Take Big Steps as The Village Nursery Officially Opens](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/news/2026-10-16-little-feet-take-big-steps-as-the-village-nursery-officially-opens) ### News & Events - [Calendar](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/calendar) - [Latest News](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/news) - [Letters and Communication](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/news-events/letters) ![Burscough Village Primary School and Nursery](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/logo/Burscough-footer-logo-2.png) #### Burscough Village Primary School and Nursery Colburne Close, Burscough Ormskirk Lancashire L40 4LB 01704 895403 01704 895403 #### Useful Links: - [Calendar](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/calendar) - [Contact Details](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/contact) - [Who's Who](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/about-us/who-s-who) - [Why Pick Us?](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/about-us/why-pick-us) - [Equality](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/about-us/equality) - [Virtual Tour](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/about-us/virtual-tour) - [Admission](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/about-us/admissions) - [Senior Leadership Team](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/about-us/senior-leadership-team) #### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/BVPSPrimarySchool/) - [X](https://twitter.com/bvpstweets) - [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/@burscoughvillage7623) - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/burscough-village-primary-school/) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/bvps_primaryschool) © Copyright 2023–2026 Burscough Village Primary School and Nursery School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
