Ancient Greek Workshop.

Today we had a visit from Portals to the Past. We spent the day dressed up and Dan Shadrake from Portals to the Past and the Horrible Histories tv series joined us. He showed us maps and taught us about the timeline of Ancient Greece and talked about myths and legends, then he recreated some of them using some very willing volunteers! In the afternoon Agnesi class represented Athens and Teresa class represented Sparta. There was a quiz, a game called Petteia and Archimedes puzzles too. Next we learnt about the Olympics. Finally we got to try on Ancient Greek armour and hats and modern body armour too. Here are lots of photos of our day. Thank you to parents and the children for making such fantastic costumes.
