Togas, chariots and feasting...

It can only be one thing...

Year 4 have today had their much awaited Roman Day! We've all done a variety of activities:

1. We broke up into groups for the morning and had a go at cooking (pizza making), making brooches, fact finding and working out our birth dates in Roman numerals!  
2. We then collaborated all of the food the children had brought in, along with the pizzas they had made, to create a grand feast for lunch. Amazingly, most of the food went. Hungry Romans! 
3. In the afternoon we firstly utilised the fantastic Roman chariot that the children have been making for the last couple of weeks - A massive thank you has to go to Mr. Duncalf for his input on this - to re-enact some Roman battle tactics and formations in the context of some fun games. 
4. The children all had a go at acting out some of their Roman plays that they have been practicing for the last couple of weeks!

Unfortunately though we then ran out of time! All the children took part in all elements of the day and were sensible and responsible for the whole day - Well done everyone! 

Thank you parents for your input regarding the making/creating of costumes - some very nice outfits - I'll be dreaming of safety pins this evening! 

Hopefully some pictures to follow!
