[Classics for All @classicsforall]

Learning Latin or ancient Greek can be a scary prospect for children (and adults!) but CfA has found the study of ancient languages to be a great 'leveller' in the classroom and builds confidence in other areas such as literacy, communication and even modern foreign language

Fantastic Latin work completed by our Luke in Year 7. Well done, Luke! 🥳 @academy_barclay

[Barclay Classics @BarclayClassics]

As Mr Furber would put it, 'a piece of cake!'.
