Ribchester Roman Museum (01.10.2024)

Calder and Fairsnape classes joined forces to enable a trip to Ribchester Roman Museum.

The classes have been learning about the Roman Empire and Emporers.   The museum curator helped to bring ancient history to life.  The pupils were able to handle artefacts such as excavated pots and ancient oil lamps.

 All of the children were given opportunities to wear Roman Soldier clothing.  We also learned how a very detailed headpiece was discovered, by chance, by a young boy living in Ribchester.  The original headpiece is on display in the Bristish Museum in London.
