Roman Trip!
Published 16/10/25
Wrens had a fantastic Romans trip to Hands on Heritage at Tunstall Forest! Upon our arrival, we had home-cooked pancakes served with honey and apple juice in roman numeral cups. We then became archeologists and excavated a Roman villa. We found many different artefacts, including broken pots, coins, bones and tesserae (mosaic tiles). We were able to work out what the different rooms in the villa would have been based upon what was found there.
We also tried different activities that the people in Britain would have been doing, including whittling wood to make a butter knife, making jewellery from pewter and weaving wool to create cloth.
We all agreed it was a fantastic trip!
