Greek Day in P4/5!

Today had our Greek Day in P4/5. We braved the snow outside to come to school dressed in traditional Greek dress and spent the day immersed in a variety of Greek themed activities. Firstly we spent the early morning designing and painting theatrical masks based on Greek heroes and monsters. While these were drying we rehearsed a version of the story of Pandora's Box which we learned and performed after the lunch break. For this we worked alongside the S4/5 drama class who helped cast and direct the play. We spent the final part of our Greek day eating some traditional Greek foods; humous, stuffed olives, feta cheese and garlic in olive oil. Everyone was very brave and tried something that they had never eaten before.
All in all it was a great day and a fun way of rounding off our look at the legacy of ancient Greece.
