P3 and P4/3 had a really exciting day yesterday. They had a visit from an Antonine Guard. He came dressed in full Roman uniform and told the pupils all about the Roman army. He showed the different weapons and armour that were used and some pupils had the chance to try and get past the Roman shield. Each child had a sword and shield and they practised marching and attacking in different formations. Then all pupils had the chance to try on chain mail armour, helmets and Roman army boots. They all had a fantastic time!
