Year 4 – Murton Park

What a fantastic day the children have had at Murton Park! We started the day with introductions before making our way to the Roman fort and getting into our Roman tunics!

We then practised some military drills with our spear and shield before moving on to the sword and javelin. We practised throwing the javelin like a Roman soldier and learnt how the Roman army would fight their enemies using their Gladius!

Lunch time back in the barracks!

In the afternoon, we got to see some real Roman weapons before working hard crafting Roman pottery. We also filled out our applications to join the Roman army using more traditional Roman lettering and numerals! What a fantastic day it has been!
