We used single, white bed sheets and draped one side over our shoulder while wrapping the other one tightly around our waist and tucking over the other shoulder. The class then moved to the Fountain Quad where we performed the playDeath in the Senatein front of the statue of Meleager, in two groups of 15.The play was about the death of Julius Caesar who was murdered in 44 BCE by a number of conspirators who believed he was gaining too much power. After his death the Second Triumvirate was formed by Octavian, Mark Antony and Lepidus. We finished our plays and headed towards the original front of the school and had a lunch of \u201ctraditional Roman cuisine.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Natnisha Bonnice 70<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/fortstreet\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2019\/07\/70-Toga-Day-photo-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1282\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/fortstreet\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2019\/07\/70-Toga-Day-photo-1-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2019\/07\/70-Toga-Day-photo-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2019\/07\/70-Toga-Day-photo-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2019\/07\/70-Toga-Day-photo-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/fortstreet\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2019\/07\/70-Toga-Day-photo-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1284\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/fortstreet\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2019\/07\/70-Toga-Day-photo-3-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2019\/07\/70-Toga-Day-photo-3-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2019\/07\/70-Toga-Day-photo-3-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2019\/07\/70-Toga-Day-photo-3-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is no excuse for History ever being boring, so to celebrate the end of Semester One, students from 7O (who have been studying Ancient Rome) held a Toga Day; students from 8H3 (who have been studying the Spanish Conquest of the Americas) held an Aztec Day and students in 10H1 (who have been studying [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1283,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","class_list":["post-1281","article","type-article","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/fortstreet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/1281","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/fortstreet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/fortstreet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/article"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/fortstreet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1281"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/fortstreet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1283"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/fortstreet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1281"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
