4DH Fishbourne Roman Palace Trip

4DH as well as other year 4 classes went on a trip to Fishbourne Roman Palace to learn about Roman lifestyle and artefacts!


During our trip, we explored the importance of archaeologists  as well as getting a taste of being a Roman slave. Ilia and Mehreen are understanding how to build a mosaic. This is one of the activities which are listed below.

We did mosaic building, Roman writing on two different resources, wool spinning, games from olden times and many more similar activities.

Two pupils were chosen to dress up as Prince and Princess to see the importance of  how the Romans dressed up in olden days and how they lived life as rulers.

                                 




THE MOSAIC:

 
This is one of the Roman artefacts that we saw during our adventure.  For example, mosaics like this are commonly laid on the floors of wealthy Romans' homes.
 
 
Harriet and Isobel tried to make their own mosaic using their initials and coloured cubes.
