We’ve had a lovely afternoon creating swords and helmets ready for our Roman battle! Thank you to all the parents that braved the heat and managed not to melt! I was so impressed with everyone’s creativity and resilience because it was a tricky task making the swords! More pictures to follow!

We have started to prepare our shields ready for battle! The first step was to paint them a brilliant red! Tomorrow we will decorate them so watch out for the finished product!

In crew this morning, we looked at what makes us unique. We drew around each other in chalk and filled in the bodies with all of the things that make us special!

Class 11 have been working super hard to create Roman style mosaics that include their initial. They are going to look so colourful on display!

Crew Knowles have loved the fact it has been National Read a Book Day today and we have read lots of stories! A special thank you to our Bodhi (one of our learning councillors) who visited us this afternoon to read a story! George also wanted to read a story to our crew and we can’t wait for him to finish it tomorrow!

Esmae did a beautiful job of reading a story to our class today as part of National Read a Book Day! Thank you Esmae!

We’ve had great fun today creating catapults to replicate the ones which the Romans used during battle!

We had lots of fun this afternoon taking part in some Roman sports! We marched like the Romans, practised our throwing, completed the Roman hurdles and even joined in some chariot racing!
