5th and 6th Year Classics and Drama, Film and Theatre Studies students visit Rome

On the 28th of February the Sixth and Fifth year Classics and Drama, Film & Theatre studies students flew to Rome bright and early. We were flown there by past pupil Greg, First Officer. This added to the excitement of the trip. We visited the Pantheon where we got to see the sun through the oculus and the sheer scale of the building. This was the first time for many of the students seeing the building. We visited the Capitoline museum where we saw many interesting artifacts most notably the statue of Marcus Aurelius and Commodus on the first day.
