Chapter 5 Roman Day

Chapter 5 pupils enjoyed a fabulous Roman day on Monday, when the team from History Alive visited Liverpool College. To start the day, the children were treated to a highly interactive play which introduced The Romans topic, including teaching pupils about Emperors, Boudica and the types of entertainment enjoyed in a Colosseum. A gladiator marched in to talk about warfare techniques and a Roman lady took the children on a guided tour of Roman baths, starting in the tepidarium through to the fridgidarium. Moving back in time, the school was transported to Hadrian's wall and put on sentry duty to look for invading Celts. The fun did not end there - all pupils then took part in two works - one exploring gradients in aqueduct half pipes and another learning Roman dancing. Our thanks to the Wilton Trust for arranging this fabulous event.
