Year 4 Roman Villa Visit As part of our ongoing Roman topic,
Year 4 had a fascinating day out exploring the Roman villa at
Lulllingstone. We started off our explorations by first of all
looking at the ancient site and comparing it with what we see
around us in London. We encouraged the children to think about
why the Romans might have built a settlement at Lullingstone. We
agreed that the nearby river would have helped the Romans with
their transport needs. After lunch in the Roman village, Year 4
then played a game of Roman invaders. Some unlucky Year 4 Celts
fell victim to the Michael Faraday Roman Empire! We have been
continuing this work back in the classroom, examining various
Roman artefacts and looking at traditional Roman costumes. The
children have also been designing their own Roman mosaics.
