Class 2 were treated to a visit from a Roman legionary soldier on our Roman Day. He arrived fully dressed in Roman armour and told us about his life in Roman Britain. We learnt how the legion moved from place to place, setting up camp and defending the troops. We played Roman rummy which taught us about Roman gods, places, buildings, the army and engineering. We practised using Roman numerals too.We marched together and created the tortoise formation with our shields.
The children were commended on their excellent knowledge and behaviour. They looked fantastic in their costumes and had a fantastic day. Thank you for helping them with their costumes. Some even made swords, shields and Tony created his very own standard… brilliant!
