--- title: "Magnificent Maya" url: "https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/news/2018-03-01-magnificent-maya" school: "Gillibrand Primary School" --- # Magnificent Maya ![Image of Magnificent Maya](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/news/maya.jpg) 1 March 2018 KS2 had a wonderful day on Tuesday. We were extremely fortunate to have a visit from Dr Diane Davies, a Maya archaeloogist. She is the only female Maya archaelogist in the world! Diane held an assembly for all the children. She discussed all the wonderful achievements of the Maya civilisation and explained her job. Each class then had the opportunity to handle lots of Maya artefacts and make a calendar. Diane also answered questions about her job. Diane commented on the excellent behaviour of the children and the wonderful community spirit of our school. ### Maya workshop [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/DSC09714.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/DSC09714.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/DSC09718.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/DSC09718.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/DSC09720.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/DSC09720.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/DSC09725.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/DSC09725.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/DSC09756.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/DSC09756.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/DSC09769.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/DSC09769.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0231.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0231.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0232.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0232.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0238.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0238.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0239.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0239.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0261.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0261.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0265.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0265.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0268.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0268.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0274.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0274.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0279.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0279.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0421.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0421.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0426.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0426.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0428.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0428.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0434.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0434.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0442.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0442.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0761.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0761.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0763.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0763.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0769.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0769.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17225/IMG_0787.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/17225/IMG_0787.JPG) [ Snow!](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/news/2018-02-28-snow) [World Book Day 2018 ](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/news/2018-03-02-world-book-day-2018-3) ### News - [Latest News](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/events) - [Newsletters](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/newsletters) ![Gillibrand Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/logo/gillibrand_logo_2.png) #### Gillibrand Primary School Grosvenor Road Chorley PR7 2PJ 01257 274983 #### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/people/Gillibrand-Primary-School/61564646614865/?locale=en_GB) © Copyright 2015–2026 Gillibrand Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
