Year 4 had a fantastic trip to the Royal Armouries as part of their history topic. Whilst there, the children took part in a Greek Mythology workshop, where they stepped right into the shoes of legendary heroes and gods to bring ancient stories to life through drama and role-play. They were then put through their paces in a Spartan soldier training session. They learned how ancient warriors formed shields, followed commands and worked as a team to defend their city-state. Before heading back to school, the children were treated to a live Celt combat demonstration and spent time exploring the gallery exhibits, getting a chance to look at real weapons and armour from throughout history.
