Year 3 plunged into the world of the Romans, were they ruthless conquerors or remarkable innovators? The brilliant Openbox Theatre Company returned to school and instantly transported the children back nearly two thousand years. In no time at all, our hall became the mist‑shrouded island of Britannia, ready to be explored, invaded and conquered.
One of the most memorable moments came when the children transformed into disciplined Roman soldiers. Shields up, formations tight, and marching perfected – they were ready for battle. Their enthusiasm was infectious.
It was a fantastic day of learning, creativity and historical adventure.
