History Specialists

We will no longer be posting any updates from The Specialists on X. This is something we have been considering for a while. X has become a toxic media platform, no longer appropriate for our use. You can find us on our website getthespecialists.co.uk and other social media.

@BablakeJunior Thank you for another booking. Your pupils listened really well and got stuck in with all the activities!

🏺 Year 4 celebrated Greek culture by enjoying a traditional Greek feast before meeting a Spartan Hoplite soldier who shared stories and explored ancient art and medicine through mosaic-making and herbal remedies. #Greece #coventryparents

As part of our School’s Roman Day, our Year 3 pupils learned about attack and defence strategies and practised the famous testudo formation. Pupils also dressed up in roman clothing, examined pottery and practised writing in Latin.  Well done Year 3! #Coventry

@BablakeJunior Thanks for inviting The Specialists into your school and we hope you enjoy the rest of the topic!

@GPSMrAtkinson @GPSMissCockram @GreystokePS Thanks for inviting Cleopatra back once again! Good luck with the topic.

Our Year 5s have begun their immersive Egyptian Day with an introduction and mummification session. @getspecialists @GPSMissCockram @GreystokePS

@MowmacreHill @MattSPeet Thanks for having us back once again. It’s always a pleasure and a privilege to share a day of history learning with you.

Ancient Greek Day. Year 3 had a visit from Gregorios, a Spartan Hoplite. We swore allegiance to the Spartan army and then formed a phalanx to practise our marching. #itsallgreektome @MattSPeet @getspecialists

Year 4 are beginning their Roman day. We are looking forward to what we are going to be learning and doing throughout the day. @Discoverytrust @getspecialists @MerrydaleDeputy

@Hathern_Primary Thanks for having us back again!

@Accprimary Thanks for booking The Specialists!

The children in Year 5 have been learning all about the Vikings and enjoyed a fun packed Viking day delivered by a specialist. The children dressed up in Viking clothing, handled Viking artefacts, played Viking games, and asked lots of questions throughout the day.

@MerrydaleJunior @Discoverytrust Thanks for having us back once again. Laelia is looking forward to the Roman day with you next month too!

Year 3 have had a brilliant visit from @getspecialists today, focussing on our current Ancient Greek history topic. The children have learnt to walk in a battle formation, how to write using reed pens and how to make Ancient Greek medicine! @Discoverytrust

@gpsmisswalker @GreystokePS Thanks for booking The Specialists for your Roman day!

We are having a fantastic day so far we have been part of our own Greystoke legion. We are now exploring our own Roman Forum. @GreystokePS

A final set of pictures from our fabulous day yesterday. We finished the day off playing games and trained as gladiators. A huge thank you to Lisa from @getspecialists who delivered an amazing day and brought Ancient Rome to life for us🌟

Today, year 4 are learning all about the Romans through a Roman Experience day. @getspecialists

This is a momentous day indeed as we welcome our new colleague, Natalie Beniston! She will be working alongside Lisa and I, initially delivering Victorian and Toys From The Past workshops. We are very excited to be working with Natalie!
