Year 4 Trip to Deva Roman Discovery Centre, Chester

Oct 6 @ 9:00 am – 3:50 pm

To complement this term’s history curriculum work we have arranged for Year 4 to visit the Deva Roman Discovery Centre in Chester. Whilst there, they will attend a workshop on the Romans, learning all about their way of life, and be given a tour of Chester city by a “real-life” Roman soldier.

The visit will take place on Tuesday 6^th October, departing school shortly after morning registration and returning around 3.50pm. If we encounter any significant delay on our return journey, we will do our best to keep you informed.

The cost for this trip is £21.30 which includes the cost of the workshop/Roman tour, transport and admin charges. Payment for this trip should be made via your child’s Arbor account prior to the date of the trip.

Your child will need to bring a packed lunch and plenty to drink for this trip. Those pupils entitled to free school meals will be given a packed lunch by our school meals provider before departure. Please also ensure that they wear school uniform, comfortable school shoes or trainers and have a lightweight waterproof coat with them. As we will not be visiting the souvenir shop, additional spending money is not required.

In case of an emergency or medical incident during the trip we ask that you check that your contact details are up-to-date on Arbor prior to the trip. Thank you for your assistance.

Year 4 Roman Day

Oct 15 @ 9:00 am – 3:15 pm

As part of our topic on the Ancient Romans, each Year 4 class will be having an exciting Roman Day.

The day will be packed with fun activities linked to our Roman topic, giving the children the chance to experience what life was like during Roman times.

Please bring:

🔹An empty cereal box – ideally one where the front is larger than A4. If you have more than one, even better! We will be using these for some Roman-themed crafting activities during the day.

🔹A coat – we will be spending some time outdoors, so please make sure your child is prepared for the weather.

🔹Outdoor shoes – these will be needed for our outdoor activities.

Come dressed as a Roman

If possible, we would love the children to come to school dressed as a Roman. They could come as:

⚔️ A centurion

👑 An emperor

🏛️ A citizen of Rome

🧺 A slave

🌟 A Roman god or goddess

Please don’t feel that you need to buy anything specially for the day! There are lots of simple ways to create a Roman costume using things you may already have at home.

For example:

🔹A flat bed sheet can easily be turned into a toga.

🔹A large piece of scrap fabric, plain clothes and a scarf could make a simple slave tunic.

🔹A cardboard box and some tin foil could be transformed into a centurion’s breastplate or shield.

We are really looking forward to stepping back in time and being Romans for the day! 🏛️⚔️
