Roman villas exhibition Dec 2009
St Laurence School Year 7 History Skills Project
Over the Christmas break 2009/2010 we arranged for students from St Laurence School to display their models of Roman Villas in the Library exhibition room. This is a project carried out each year by Year 7 students and followed on from the Museum’s exhibition about Roman Bradford. They had about 2 weeks to create their model, having studied Roman Villas in lessons and at the Museum. They aimed to demonstrate a variety of skills, as required by the curriculum. Over 200 people visited and left valuable comments in the visitors’ book. Many were amazed to see that some villas were made of cake and Shreddies!
We will continue to work with all schools in the Bradford Hundred and look forward to their involvement with our projects planned for 2010.
