Classics @Nower Hill

We're the flourishing Classics dept at Nower Hill High School (a state school), teaching Greek, Latin, Ancient History, Classics & Oracy. Rhymes w/ 'lower'!

Congratulations to all our A-Level students! You've had such a crazy last few years and have done really well despite all of that. Well done and best wishes for the future. Keep in touch! #NowerHillforLife

Just for those watching #MagpieMurders, it is absolutely possible to learn/teach Ancient Greek in the state sector - although we'd like to think our lessons are more engaging than the one in Ep 1!

I love a lot about this image, but especially finding out how Mark Antony and Cicero were pretty much next-door neighbours for nine years.

[Classics @Nower Hill @ClassicsNHHS]

This is legendary!

[Classics @Nower Hill @ClassicsNHHS]

@BSGDClassics @officialnhaynes Great, thanks. That sounds like a good addition.

[Classics @Nower Hill @ClassicsNHHS]

We're building a library of classical fiction for our sixth form students to borrow and enjoy. Suggestions welcome! The book with the dark spine is @officialnhaynes's A Thousand Ships!

[Classics @Nower Hill @ClassicsNHHS]

@AncientGreekHL @officialnhaynes Sure, I'll take a pic of both shelves at some point and post it. We're really trying for as diverse a range of fiction as possible.

@MathewdBuckley @officialnhaynes We read bits of that for Imperial Image, but it's a bit dated...?

[Classics @Nower Hill @ClassicsNHHS]

@BSGDClassics @officialnhaynes One of our favourites - somehow it hasn't quite made its way from the office to the bookshelf, but it'll get there at some point!

It's the last of our six Year 7 trips to the British Museum and National Gallery tomorrow. Much enjoyment of pots and mythology despite snow and delayed trains!

@economysir We use chromebooks regularly to access the CLC online resources, Memrise, Blooket, Google Docs, etc. Great tool.

[Classics @Nower Hill @ClassicsNHHS]

Well, we all know that last statement needs tackling! Come on sixth formers! #TeamCaesar
