Here’s a wonderful thread on how to get involved in archaeology. We have a few students every year who are interested in studying archaeology at Uni or just want to know more about. Here’s a bunch of great resources! The local Young Archaeologists in Basingstoke are a fab group!
Hooked on #Archaeology?
Want to get involved?
Looking for free + low-cost options?
Well, here's how....

I’m not always sure what to say when I’m asked to give careers/life advice, but yesterday I gave these 6th formers my greatest piece of wisdom (sometimes - when you have been crying a lot - you don’t just need a glass of water, you need a bag of crisps as well, for the salt).
A huge thank you to @officialnhaynes who visited @runshawcollege today to speak with students from the School of English, Languages and Classics. Judging from the questions asked and long queue at the book stall, it was an event enjoyed by all. Thank you Natalie!
