Invaders and Settlers

We love learning about the Invaders and settlers in Year 4! We begin our topic with learning all about the Romans before moving on to learn about the Vikings and Anglo Saxons. We will be looking at who these groups of people were and where they came from, as well as their everyday lives. In a few weeks we will be visiting The Collection Museum in Lincoln to round up the Roman part of our topic which we are really looking forward to. If you want to find our more about what we cover please look at our topic overview and knowledge organiser below. As the topic progresses we will be adding more to this page.

Year 4 visit to Lincoln Museum

Wednesday 16th October 2024

The year 4 children learned about the Romans. We had a fun day out! First we were archaeologists digging for artefacts.

Next we were Roman soldiers wearing all the armour. Marching, charging and roaring at each other.

Finally we visited the museum and handled artefacts from the Roman times, 2000 years ago.
