Ancient Greek Day Video

 

 

Ancient Greek Day!

Our students recently stepped back in time to experience life in Ancient Greece! The day was filled with hands-on activities that brought history o life and sparked creativity. Children explored traditional crafts and practices, including:

  • Soap Carving-Inspired by ancient artistry, students carved intricate designs into soap.
  • Potion Making-Recreating herbal mixtures and learning about remedies used in ancient times.
  • Crown of Leaves- Each child crafted a beautiful wreath crown, just like those worn by Olympic champions. 
  • Designing Ancient Greek Coins- Students imagined themselves as rulers and created their own coin designs. 

It was a wonderful opportunity for our learners to connec with history in a fun and interactive way. A big thank you to everyone who helped make this day memorable!
