Ancient D

"Our Year Seven History classes embarked upon a journey through time to explore ancient civilisations. Through a diverse range of interactive activities, we delved into the various societal roles and practices. These activities included archery as well as workshops relating to rulers & subjects, religion & craft, warriors & warfare, metal work, ancient China and a gladiator simulation"

This term, Year Seven History classes travelled back in time to the ancient world and participated in a diverse range of interactive activities. As part of the Year Seven Humanities curriculum, Year Seven students participated in ‘Ancient Day’

Students were invited to come in costumes inspired by ancient Egyptian, Roman, Chinese or Greek civilisations. They were able to immerse themselves in ancient cultures and learn about various societal roles and practices.

Students participated in archery as well as workshops relating to rulers & subjects, religion & craft, warriors & warfare, metal work, ancient China and a gladiator simulation.

"What I liked most about Ancient day was how we got to learn about different things about the past Educators came from Melbourne and brought all the armour and weapons that they used back then which was cool My favourite part was archery because it was fun "

"I enjoyed dressing up for ancient day and having guest speakers come in and teach us all about ancient cultures like ancient China, Egypt, Greece and Rome as well as what life was like back then We also learnt about the development of materials we used like the copper age, bronze age and iron age I personally liked learning about the gladiators and seeing people dress up in cool armour and also learning about what the Romans did in the colosseum "
