Roaming around in Rome
All Latin students of Year 7 spent a week in Rome exploring ancient and Christian sights, and that has left deep impressions. Apart from Roman monuments (or their ruins), churches and museums we really enjoyed the underground tour of Domus Romanae at Palazzo Valentini and our visit to the excavations in Ostia Antica. Leapfrogging through history, we also familiarized ourselves with modern Roman culture (espressi, gelati, antipasti misti, pasta, and friendly Italian waiters).
