YEAR 5 GREEK DAY

Dear Year 5 Parents/Carers,

On Friday 8th May we will be having Greek Day in Year 5 and the children are invited to come to school dressed up in clothing from ancient Greek times. They can come dressed as Greek Gods/Goddesses if they would like to. Please don't feel that you must go and spend lots of money on a bought costume. A creatively wrapped bedsheet works well!

We have attached a document of some ideas for dressing up.

There is no expectation for children to dress up if they don't want to.

We have Portals from the Past coming in to do a wonderful workshop with the children throughout the day and this supports our History learning about ancient Greeks this half term.

Kind regards,

Mrs Stow and Mr Murtagh
