Year 2 History of the Olympics

Year 2 participated in an exciting workshop all about the history of the Olympics. They went in a time machine and explored the origin of the Olympics from 3000 years ago. Using drama and role play, they were able to imagine what it was like to ride on a chariot and take part in a wrestling match as well as experience what it was like to wear an olive wreath as a winner. They also explored all the different games that athletes competed in the past and in modern times.
