On Monday we visited Segedunum in Wallsend as part of our Romans project. There were great views of the fort from the viewing tower. We could see where the headquarters, the hospital, the granary and other buildings had been. We drew our own plans of the fort.

In the Roman Gallery we dressed up as Emperors, soldiers and servants. The clothes were not at all comfortable, some of them were very rough and hairy.

In the Activities Room we put on our hard hats to design and construct our own Hadrian’s Wall. We had some excellent ideas, in fact our ideas were probably better than the Romans!
