P4/5’s Roman Feast

Through our recent learning we have been finding out about the Romans.

We looked this week at Roman foods and were shocked at some of the items they would have on their feast menus – can you imagine eating peacock, tongue or dormice!

We created our own Roman Feast menus with a variety of foods we thought we might like to try.

Today we had our very own Roman feast with a variety of foods to try, some we were a bit apprehensive of but we all tried some new foods today and are very proud of ourselves!
