Romans rule!
20 September 2019
Having spent the first two weeks of the academic year settling into the routines of Year 3, the girls were transported back in time to Roman days.
As part of their History topic on Early Invaders pupils visited the Lunt Roman Fort in Baginton, near Coventry.
The Lunt is an early wooden Roman fort. The girls were shown how the fort protected itself from the Celts and how the Roman soldiers dressed. The highlight of the day was learning to fight with Roman shields and swords in the cavalry training ring (gyrus).
The beautiful weather helped the girls to enjoy their day and extend their knowledge of these invaders.
