Good morning everyone!
You might remember looking at the picture or video about the parka that came from the Arctic. That was from the British Museum’s Arctic Exhibition. A while ago I contacted the British Museum to ask if anyone was available from the Arctic Exhibition to do a live chat with Holywood Primary, but unfortunately many staff at the museum have been furloughed or are working from home due to Covid restrictions, so that is not possible.
However… the museum has said that if we would like to send any questions about the Arctic to the museum experts they will try and answer your questions. They will either reply by email, or if they can record a video answer they will do that. What a great opportunity to find out more about the Arctic from the experts!
In case you’d like a reminder about the parka, and if you would like to see the rest of the Arctic Exhibition at the British Museum, here is a link to the Exhibition web page:

Here’s your chance! Reply to this blog post with any questions you have about the Arctic for the British Museum experts, by Friday, and I will email your questions to the museum and let you have any answers as they come back to me. They did say there may be a slight delay to the Covid situation, but they will answer your questions as best they can.
