During the last week of September Year 4 visited the London Mithraeum and Guildhall’s Roman Amphitheatre as part of our history topic on the Romans. We got to see the remains of a Roman temple in the Mithraeum and experience what happened in Roman temples by listening to some of the Latin chanting that used to happen during Roman times. We also saw over 600 artefacts used in everyday life. In the amphitheatre we saw where gladiators used to fight in Londinium and learned how brutal the games were! We recorded videos of ourselves sharing what we had learned about the amphitheatre to add to our Roman presentations in our computing lessons.

Curwen had a fantastic time at Ranelagh Primary School on Friday 22nd September celebrating the
launch of Ranelagh Rockets.
A team of 10 children participated in a Baseball festival on the new diamond court at Ranelagh,
trying their hand at a range of pitching, throwing and batting activities. They also got to play some
small-sided games against North Beckton, Kensington and Ranelagh where they could showcase
their fantastic baseball skills.
The children thoroughly enjoyed it and are very much looking forward to playing Baseball again
soon!
Well done to these children who represented the school amazingly: Rafin (6A), Diana (6C), Tatyana
(6C), Lorenzo (6R), Sumaiya (6R), Khalil (6R), Ashana (6R), Sufyaan (6K), Jaynie (5T), Thiago (5T).

Some of our Year 5 children have spent the week enjoying the great outdoors, on their residential visit to Ullswater in The Lake District National Park. They've taken part in a variety of activities, including rock climbing, abseiling, gorge walking, hiking, tunnelling and visiting a local farm. They've also completed the John Muir Award. No doubt it's been an unforgettable experience of a lifetime. Click here to see photographs of their visit.
