Wow what fun we had today!! We had the opportunity to take part in a Roman banquet, where we got to see many of the meals the Romans once indulged in! We thought some of them sounded nice, but others such as calf brain custard didn’t take our fancy as much! We looked closely at what would be on a Roman banquet table! I wonder if the children remember why the feather was on the table!
After this we met a Roman soldier who took us on as recruits in the army. We learnt that we would be fed and have somewhere to live but we didn’t like the sound of the punishments! It was interesting to see all the different weapons and what they were used for!
After some lovely lunch in the glorious sunshine and surroundings of Bradwell Abbey we explored our creative skills and made some mosaics.
There is a small selection of photos below! Thanks for a wonderful day year 4! 🙂
