​Today, we visited Binchester Roman Fort. The Latin name for Binchester Fort is Vinovia. We had fun taking part in a range of different activities across the day. We watched archaeologists carrying out an archaeological dig, looked at ruins of the bath house and roads, tried on traditional Roman clothing, created mosaics, washed some artefacts, identified new artefacts in the sand, discovered games the Romans played in the bath houses, looked at tools used in the bath houses, read some Latin and created some Roman pottery. We looked carefully around the ruins for the Binchester Beast and eventually found it! It was one of the best days we have ever had in Year 3!
