Dixons Kings Academy: GCSE Classical Civilisation trip to the British Museum

Dixons Kings Academy was thrilled to receive funding from the Classical Association to take eight of our students to London to visit the British Museum.

Students were particularly impressed by the size of a Pithos jar noting that they really were large enough for King Eurystheus to hide in one! Our students had a great time on the train to London (with one student beating Miss Johnson at chess) as well as looking around the Museum.

Seeing the material culture of the Greeks and Romans undoubtedly helped our students to appreciate the ancient world. Without funding from the Classical Association, this trip would not have been possible!
