Latin
All Year 6 pupils learn Latin. We use the engaging Cambridge ‘Minimus’ course, which focuses on life at the Roman fort at Vindolanda.
Our studies include Roman Britain, Roman and Greek myths, as well as language study. Led by Minimus the mouse, the pupils learn basic Latin grammar and vocabulary through stories featuring a real Vindolandan family.
The pupils use their ICT skills to make Latin birthday cards and menus, as well as investigating and researching Latin roots and mottos. We even try out some Roman recipes!
