Year 3 Roman Day

Year 3 had a fantastic Roman Day and were fully immersed in their learning from start to finish. We began the morning by designing our own Roman soldiers, thinking carefully about the features and equipment that would have been used by soldiers in Roman times.

Next, the children designed and made their own Roman shields. They worked hard to create detailed designs and then secured handles to the back of the shields. This activity showed great teamwork and perseverance, as the children supported one another and took pride in completing their shields.

During the day, the children also made Roman coins from clay and designed colourful mosaics inspired by Roman art and architecture. These activities allowed them to explore different aspects of Roman life and showcase their creativity.

To finish the day, we headed to the playground for a Roman battle using the shields the children had made. It was a fun and exciting way to bring our learning to life!

The children had a wonderful day, immersed themselves in their learning, and even added their own ideas and enthusiasm to make the experience even more memorable.

We would also like to say a huge thank you to all the parents and carers for the effort put into the costumes. The children looked fantastic and really helped to make the day feel authentic and special.
