                                   PROJECT:  THE ROME DAY
                             DATE:  14TH OCTOBER 2015

The groups were as follows:

• Games: gladiators and chariot races, holidays, and entertainment (JOSEPH, ALETHEA, DAVINA) 

• Baths and bath rituals • Family life (ALEENA, SANEAH)

• Weddings, marriages, and divorce (AMY, HODA)

• Housing and food and mealtime customs for the various classes( SHREYA, SCHWETA, JEWELLYN)

• Education, funerals, and theatre (JANANI, DINA, NIRANJANA)

Focus was on the major factors affecting social class such as  heredity, property, wealth, citizenship, and freedom.

  2. Eventhough it was my first english lesson, I actually enjoyed being part of a really interactive class. The topic 'Rome' was not my cup of tea, however, there will be many more topics to come and I'm looking forward an interesting and exciting year.

    It was impressive. It is very interesting to learn things that they do from old times and how they train and survive during war.
