Instrumental in developing my love of Classics at a young age. Planning to read this book to my year 7 Latinists for 10 minutes every lesson.

The Thieves of Ostia is the first of 17 books in my Roman Mysteries series of books for kids. It came out nearly 20 years ago. Here is a high-res image of the original first generation cover... Enjoy! 😊 #ThievesOfOstia #Romans https://t.co/Va3TAJXfJX

Calling all Classics teachers, lecturers, professors, fanatics, radicals and dabblers: I am putting together a talk on why the Classics deserve a place on all school curricula, and I would love to know what the community thinks as a whole.
Please RT for further exposure!

Well done to all of our athletes this morning! The U13s braved the cold ❄️ and the U12s got dazzled by the sun ☀️ but one things for sure the Netball was red hot 🔥 #KingsSport See you all next week for some more Netball action @ club #NetballFamily #DiscoverYourPassion

Year 11 afternoon: lacrosse sticks as broomsticks + a Netball as a quaffle +tennis ball as a golden snitch = laughter, silliness, fun and forgetting about exam stress/the near future. Quotation of the day: “it feels really good to laugh miss”. #chasingthesnitchtogiveyouastitch

#USElection2020! #OV Molly Farmiloe shares about her time as part of Hillary Clinton's team in Florida in the 2016 election. "was an experience I’ll never forget. That overwhelming feeling that on Election Day, the power really is with the people, and not with the politicians."

Love hearing students speaking so passionately about their subject and interacting with ancient cultures. #classicsconnectsusall

Not a bad view from my new classroom 🥰 #viewscureblues

@bookbren @officialnhaynes I have returned my borrowed copy and bought my own for this exact reason!

[Grace Hawthorne @gnetball33]

Very sad to have finished ‘A Thousand Ships’. So refreshing to read about prominent moments from mythology through different narratives. Felt torn between reading it slowly and reading it all in one go. #newfavourite @officialnhaynes

@StephenJenkin @DrArleneHH @educationgovuk @ofqual @Classical_Assoc @ARLTClassics @ClassCivAncHist I think I was just surprised for the government not to have contacted centres to make them aware of the consultation process, and to have basically left it to Classical organisations to try to help reach people. Thank you for your efforts.

[Grace Hawthorne @gnetball33]

Changes to GCSE English literature, History and ancient History examinations as there are worries of covering the literature adequately... please tell me this is happening for GCSE CC? Juvenal, Petronius, Horace, The Aeneid, Livy, Homeric Hymns to name a few.

[Grace Hawthorne @gnetball33]

@StephenJenkin @DrArleneHH @educationgovuk @ofqual @Classical_Assoc @ARLTClassics @ClassCivAncHist It sounds like a lot of hard work has gone into this to reach as many people as possible. The outcome of the consultation is what is frustrating.

[Grace Hawthorne @gnetball33]

@DrArleneHH Can I just ask how the consultation was advertised other than your tweets?
