6th formers! Go see this!

And in fact "fortius" doesn't really have much bearing on an exam scenario either.

Just revise hard, alright?

[Trinity Classics @ClassicsTrinity]

POTW: citius, altius, fortius!

Take to heart for next week's exams. Except maybe the "citius" part. And "altius" is kind of irrelevant.

[Trinity Classics @ClassicsTrinity]

POTW: prima facie.

Never judge a Classicist on first impressions.

Quis? Quid? Ubi?

POTW: alter ego.

Felicem diem bellorum astrorum! Can't believe I missed this yesterday!

[Trinity Classics @ClassicsTrinity]

POTW: persona non grata.

Could apply to virtually any member of the department.

[Trinity Classics @ClassicsTrinity]

Someone listen to this and tell Mr Bowling what it's like.

He can't listen to it, too many bad memories.

A must-watch, especially 6th formers.

[Trinity Classics @ClassicsTrinity]

POTW: panem et circenses.

Literally can't even remember the last time a politician gave me some bread, or took me to the Circus. Shame.

[Trinity Classics @ClassicsTrinity]

Jog on, Fishbourne.

POTW: nihilo ex nihil fit.

Inscribe above your revision timetables.

Nice nod to the Classics in Monday's assembly. γνῶθι σεαυτόν, boys and girls. Anybody want to translate "be yourself" and "back yourself"?

Today we saw the smelly Solfatara crater and walked in the footsteps of gladiators at the vast Pozzuoli amphitheatre

[Trinity Classics @ClassicsTrinity]

Today we enjoyed the views along the Amalfi coast and then saw the awe-inspiring Greek temples at Paestum.
