Kingfisher Class had a fantastic experience at The Newt in Somerset exploring the Roman Villa. They loved their tour of the museum, where they learned about the villa’s location, excavations, human remains, and mosaics. Then they planned a Roman dinner party, deciding who to invite, how to lay the table, which ingredients to buy at the market, and designing pottery inspired by myths and legends.  They used their practical skills, carrying out mini excavations in sand, repaired discovered treasures, played a traditional Roman game called Rota, created their own mosaics, and handled real Roman artefacts. After this busy morning, they concluded their visit with a guided tour of the villa.

The Kingfishers were an absolute joy—asking thoughtful questions and making great links between their learning in school and what they saw.
