This half term we have begun learning about the strength of the Roman Empire at its height and the subsequent invasion of Britain. We couldn’t believe how much of Europe, North Africa and the Middle East were actually under Roman control 2000 years ago! We discovered that the Romans didn’t succeed in their first two attempts at invading Britain but third time under Emperor Claudius was the charm. Understanding BCE (BC) and CE (AD) dates was a little tricky but we got there!
