Year 2 Learning Walks – Building Like the Romans!

Last Friday, our Year 2 students proudly welcomed parents into the classroom for a special Learning Walk experience. Together, students and their families stepped into the role of ancient Roman architects!

Using the challenge: ‘Imagine that you have been asked by the city of Rome to help design a new building. As a test of your skill, you need to design a column that no one has ever seen before,’ students worked collaboratively with their parents to create unique and imaginative column designs.

It was wonderful to see such rich conversations, creativity and teamwork as families explored different shapes, patterns and structures inspired by Roman architecture. The classroom was filled with excitement as students shared their ideas and explained their designs with pride.

Thank you to all the parents who attended and supported this engaging learning experience – we loved having you learn alongside us!
