Team FOSS (year 4)

Good afternoon,

This week LKS2 worked incredibly hard to write an independent diary entry, drawing on their Roman experiences from Murton Park. The teams loved completing an art project and created a brilliant volcanic eruption painting by mixing primary colours to make secondary colours and making different shades and tints. In History, we focused on when, how and why the Romans left Britain and they presented their learning in their own way!
