The Roman Battle was extremely exciting, the children had to create a turtle shell formation to protect themselves from the angry Celts, aka the Teachers!
I think the Angry Celts definitely had lots of fun throwing heavy rocks (foam balls) at the Romans!
To finish off a wonderful time at YHA Castleton, we have spent some time at the shop, buying something to remember our wonderful educational visit!
What fantastic teamwork skills year 3 have!
The children have been communicating, following instructions and supporting each other this morning in the building of a Roman seige engine!
We have learned all about the end of the prehistoric period when the Romans invaded Britain in 43AD!

A turtle shell formation saved the children from the angry celts!!!!!
The sun is shining and we are off for battle!! Just time for a group photograph first!!
This morning we launched our egg rockets outside in the grounds.
There were lots of splats and we even managed to soak our leader, Lauren! Oops!
After many successful (and even some not so successful) flights, the Egg-stremely eggy team were crowned the winners, getting themselves 100 house points each!!!
We have just sat down to eat after a wonderful sleep.
