sentences below.

Hi, I’m Andy and I’m a member of our school History club. We meet on Tuesdays and
Saturdays. Yes, I know it might sound boring but it isn’t! Last year we decided to help some
people from the university. They wanted to see if there was anything interesting underneath
a car park in the city centre – not the usual place to dig! Anyway, we expected to fi nd some

old coins or maybe a sword but there was something – or someone – incredible under there
... a skeleton! It was exciting, especially when we discovered it was King Richard III!

He is the English king nobody likes because of Shakespeare’s
play, Richard III. He killed a lot of people to get the throne
of England. He was small with a humped back. He died in a
battle in 1485 but nobody was sure what happened to him after
that – until now, of course. It was a big surprise for everyone.
TV journalists travelled from all over the world to talk to the
archaeologists. Some of them even interviewed us, which was
great. Just imagine, I was on TV! I’m defi nitely joining the club

again. Who knows what we’ll fi nd next year!
