Testimonials

Our visit from Joseph the Ancient Visitor was absolutely brilliant!

Joseph is incredibly engaging and brings history to life in such a hands-on and captivating way. The children were fascinated from the very first minute and are still talking about the experience days later. His rapport with the pupils was fantastic, and they learned so much throughout the day.

It was a truly worthwhile addition to our Roman topic — the children’s understanding of who the Romans were and what their lives were like has deepened enormously. The quality of their work and discussions since the visit has improved dramatically, thanks to the knowledge and inspiration Joseph provided. - Mrs Hallas

I can wholeheartedly recommend Ancient Visitor. Joseph was really accommodating in adapting his workshop to suit our Y6 pupils. The workshop was delivered with immense enthusiasm and the children loved it - so did the adults! - Mrs Bloomfield

What a fabulous day Year 3 have had with their Roman Visitor.

They have acted out the stories of the gods and Romulus and Remus as well as learning all about the Roman Empire. They looked at artefacts, made their own towns and event learnt some latin. They enjoyed re-enacting battles and playing some Roman games.

Thanks Mr Lister for visiting us! -School FB post

Joseph was fantastic with the children, and showed amazing subject knowledge. The class were engaged throughout by all of the activities Joseph had set for them to do. The battle finale really emersed the children into their learning. Joseph ensured ALL pupils were given the same opportunities. We will definitely book again!!! -Mrs Adcock

The children loved discovering Roman battle techniques, armour, coins, games and stories throughout their amazing Roman Day workshop. It was a fantastic opportunity for the children to learn more about Roman life and everyone who participated, was able to learn something new and immerse themselves into Roman culture. A big thank you to Ancient Visitor for this experience. We loved it! - Miss Taylor

The Roman day was accessible for all abilities of children within the class as there were opportunities for all children to be involved as well as opportunity for children to challenge themselves. A fab day that everyone enjoyed.

We had an amazing day filled with exciting Roman activities. We looked at artefacts and inferred what they could be, built our own Roman villages and acted out Roman battle scenes - School website

Year 4 delved deeper into their history topic when they had a special Roman visitor for the whole day. As well as exploring costumes and artefacts the children learned a lot about Roman times and used drama and talk to bring the topic to life. - Year 4 Newsletter
