Greek Workshop!

Date: 22nd Jan 2020 @ 3:22pm

Year 5 have had the best day, finding out all about the Anicent Greeks, with a hands-on workshop led by Penelope and Andros. Penelope was trying to convince us that the city-state of Athens is the best place to live in the Ancient Greek world, whereas Andros was adament that Sparta is far better! 

We've found out that while there were similarities between the city-states, they're actually very diffierent. 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 day we have had, role-playing and exploring what life was like in Ancient Greece.
