Year 3 Trip to Caerleon - Monday 25th April 2016

As a finale to our topic about the Romans, we went on a class trip to Caerleon, (The Roman fortress of Isca) in South Wales.
We had a workshop and tried on Roman armour, which was really heavy! Then, we explored the Roman Museum. We were lucky that the weather was nice, so we ate our lunch at the Amphitheatre. A guide told us all about how the Gladiators would have fought in the Amphitheatre and we reanacted our own battles! After the Amphitheatre, we visited the remains of the Soldiers' barracks and saw where the soldeiers in Caerleon would have lived. Finally, we went to the Roman Bath and bought some souvenirs at the gift shop.
We had a fabulous day!
