Greek Day
On Greek Day, we created our own Greek vase designs. We sketched the outline, coloured it in using crayon and covered it with black acrylic paint. Then, we used a cocktail stick to scratch out patterns. We also held an Ostracism and wrote using the ancient Greek alphabet. Finally, we performed traditional Greek dances and ate delicious Greek food, including feta cheese, hummus, olives and pitta bread.

Greek Olympics
Year 5 held their own Greek Olympic Games. The children were divided into different City States and had to compete to become the champions. They created a flag and an oath for their City States. The events held were long jump, javelin, discus, the diaulos (400m), the stade race (sprint) and wrestling (arm wrestling). In 5LDC, the winning state was Argos who came 1st in 4 out of 6 events.
