Life as a Roman

Romans!

This term in Kestrels we are learning all about the Romans.

We have held our own Eat Like a Roman Day where we cooked our lunch on open fires and baked a libum cake which the Roman would typically eat for breakfast.

We also took part in a Roman Army Day. We began the day with marching practice with the Emperor before we took part in a Roman Battle in our house teams, against other house teams. We had made shields in preparation for our battle. We had a lot of fun pretending to be Roman Soldiers against each other.

We have also decorated our own Roman Mosaics which can be seen on the display down the year 3 and 4 corridor.

In numeracy we have also been learning to read and write Roman Numerals up to 1000.

Next, we are looking forward to learning all about the Roman invasion of Britain and what happened in Pompeii.
