The Hadrian’s Wall Education Directory is a superb example of how a World Heritage Site can be brought to life in children’s imaginations. A first-rate practical field guide and stimulus to classroom activities, it has now been updated. New sheets deal with the opening of the Hadrian’s Wall path and its potential as a case study in countryside management. Others offer advice about hazards during school outings, provide guidance on handling archaeological objects and suggest work with recipes and costumes.
The Directory is available from Hadrian’s Wall Community and Education Team, 14b Gilesgate, Hexham NE46 3NJ or from the website: www.hadrians-wall.org
