Caerleon Roman Museum Trip
Wye class had an amazing day at Caerleon Roman Museum. We found out about the amphitheatre and the Roman Barracks, we even got to explore the remains. We then went an looked at the Roman Baths and found out how the Romans washed and kept clean. The workshops were really interesting and great fun. We dressed as masters and servants and got to feed each other the foods that the Romans would have eaten at a banquet. There were some very unusual foods!! Then we went into the Barrack Room and got to try on a Roman soldier’s armour. Wow!! it was very heavy.
