Y8 Trip to Corinium

On a sunny day in March one hundred Year Eights set off for the Roman town of Corinium (Cirencester). We have never taken so many girls to the museum before and were allowed the museum to ourselves!

The girls were wonderful – they marched straight into the museum and settled down to sketching the mosaics and artefacts with amazing focus. They enjoyed dressing up as Romans and finding out about life in Roman Britain. The mini projects produced – diaries, letters and town plans – were detailed and informative and displayed their enjoyment of the experience effectively. We’re now looking forward to the Hadrian’s Wall trip in the summer!
