Just Roman around..,

15 February 2017 (by Russ Payne (rpayne))

The Year 6s invaded and conquered the playground on Friday afternoon!

In the 'wow' ending to the first half of their invasion topic, the Year 6s picked up the Roman army shields they had designed previously, formed themselves into a legion and marched around the school grounds. Having researched the army's methods, they also had a go at some of the army's tactical formations such as the defensive 'tortoise', as you can see in the photos. Next term, they will be leaving the Romans and exploring the Viking invasions of Britain.
