Friday 16th May
The sunshine continued this week as our year 6 children completed their SATs and finished the week with an interhouse competition. Year 3 visited the Wroxeter Roman ruins on a beautiful, sunny day. They explored a replica of an Ancient Roman villa, make their own mosaics and discovered that Boudica herself once walked through Wroxeter before fighting the Romans! Year 4 took part in Shrewbury Museum’s fantastic Anglo-Saxon workshop on Thursday. They found out how archaeology helps us learn about the past, wrote messages in runes, made clay pots, sketched artefacts and learnt about the incredible Anglo-Saxon burial at Sutton Hoo.
