The age range of the children is between 8 and 16 and we currently have 10, although the maximum capacity is for 20, so there are vacancies if any child is interested.

We have a wide range of activities. Over the last year these have included walking the foreshore to collect archaeological objects washed up at low tide on the Thames; looking at and identifying animal bones; and making Saxon costumes based on reconstructions from archaeological evidence, including dying them (ongoing project, which involves making jewellery and information on the latest Saxon evidence from Prittlewell). Last month we made a mosaic which detailed our location and our branch - Rotherhithe YAC.
