Primary - A Roman Adventure

Join an expert from the Roman Baths and head on a Roman adventure! This session is suited for children aged 7-11 and studying the National Curriculum. We are happy to discuss your specific learning aims.

What went on in a typical day at the bathhouse? Explore how the Romans would have cleaned themselves, what clothes they wore and the snacks they had available while relaxing in the baths. In this fun and interactive session our experts will encourage thinking like an archaeologist, using 2,000-year-old Roman artefacts to bring the story of the baths to life. Can you work out what the objects were used for? What objects survive for us to discover, and why might we have to use replicas?

Our experts will ask you questions and encourage you to ask questions of them too!

We will send you a pack so that you have access to special activities, fact sheets, web pages, exclusive videos and we invite you to contact us for a virtual outreach session using the platform of your choice such as Skype, Zoom, Teams or Google Meet.
