Years 3 and 9 join together to learn about Boudica

Last week some of our Year 3 students joined forces with Year 9 to learn about the revolt of Boudica in AD61. The students were arranged into different Celtic tribes and after agreeing that Boudica was not in fact ‘an unnatural woman’, as the Romans are said to have believed just because she was a female leader, they worked together to discover the story via a card sorting activity.

Each Celtic tribe worked together to dramatise their re-telling of the scene. The Year 9s taught the Year 3s some key Latin phrases and then each tribe practised their sketch. The teamwork, kindness, enthusiasm and bravery on show was a truly wonderful sight to behold.

Several students said they developed their learner qualities, by being collaborative when working as a team and listening to each-other, showing kindness by helping one-another and being brave by performing their scene. Well done to all our students who took part!
