Greek Workshop

Date: 22nd Jan 2020 @ 12:19pm

We are having the BEST day finding out all about the Ancient Greeks with a hands-on workshop led by Penelope and Andros. Penelope is trying to convince us that the city-state of Athens is the best place to live in the Ancient Greek world, whereas Andros is adament that Sparta is far better! 

We've found out that while the city-states all have a couple of things in common (like their belief in the gods, or their language), they're actually very different places. Sparta was famous for its soldiers, whilst Athens led the way in developing democracy and studying. 

Can you remember any other facts about each of the city-states? Where would you have rather lived?

Have a look at our photos to see the fabulous role-play and exploration we're doing!
