The amazing Year Four Roman Museum

On Thursday afternoon the Year Four unit was transformed into our very own Roman Museum. We had spent the week making our own Roman artefacts and we were very pleased to welcome parents, grandparents and relatives to tour the museum. The children had researched very carefully and were the most amazing museum guides. Thank you so much to everyone who came to see the museum, we hope that you were just as impressed as us.

Great Women Who Changed the World - Future Me Presentation by Niamh M

This afternoon, Niamh has presented information to her class about Amelia Earhart, Jane Austin, Marie Curie, Anne Frank, Mary Anning, Rosa Parks and others.

Her work is interesting, informative and presented in a unique way.

Verulamium Museum visit 4AW and 4LJ

What a fantastic day we have just had at Verulamium Museum in St Albans. The children were really interested in the amazing mosaics and artefacts. It was a great privilege to handle items at least 1,500 years old and see the beautiful hypocaust in the park.

Roman oil lamp parent workshops

Thank you so much to everyone who attended the recent Roman oil lamp workshops. The children were fantastic teachers. As soon as the lamps have been fired we will be sending them home to you to enjoy.
