Our visit to the Arbeia Roman Fort

Year 3 and 4 really enjoyed our trip to the Arbeia Roman Fort in South Shields

 

We had the chance to become archaeologists for the day to find out more about life when the Romans were around! We got digging and found some real Roman artefacts and we were able to find out what they were and how they were used.



 




We braved the cold and windy weather to explore the reconstructions of the Roman Fort. It was exciting standing on top of the west gate as we were able to see everything within the fort! After comparing the reconstructed bedrooms of the soldiers and the Centurion, we are sure we would prefer to live in the Centurions villa!
