Colchester Castle
Year 4 had a brilliant time at Colchester Castle. We spent time looking around the exciting museum exhibits, had a wonderful story tour in the foundations of the castle and even got to build their own Roman Villa. On top of this, the children also got some virtual, hand-on experience of chariot racing! Overall, the children had a fantastic time learning about the Romans in Colchester and even more about Boudica's revolt and the impact she had on Colchester.
