Pupils from Roundhill Primary School in Bath stepped back in time thanks to a visit to the historic Roman Baths earlier this month.

The Year 4 children travelled to the museum using the local bus service, as part of ongoing efforts to develop their life skills.
Once at The Roman Baths, the youngsters learned about life 2000 years ago, handled original artefacts and dressed up in Roman clothing.
They also tried their hands as mini archaeologists in the Roman Baths Clore Learning Centre’s underground Investigation Zone.
Two of the children said: “I enjoyed looking around the Roman Baths and learning about it using the audio guide”, and “I liked looking for the rocks underground because I got to explore more.”
Emily Pugh, Year 3 & 4 teacher at Roundhill Primary School, said: “The session was run amazingly and all of the children got a turn to explore and have fun on all activities.
“They were able to share their own knowledge with the staff, which they enjoyed as the staff were kind and engaging.”
