Our students from @RGSNewcastle have absolutely loved this project, especially Fridayβs event. Thanks so much to everyone for organising @ClassicsNorth Fab to see @KathrynTempest too!
A brilliant trial against Verres at #ClassicsFest@litandphil for 'Corruption in the Spotlight.' Feedback from teachers and students has been overwhelmingly positive, with one teacher saying it should be mandatory watching for the CCiv modules!
So proud of all our Year 7 students @RGSNewcastle who took part in the @Caecilius_CLC Ovid Competition and special congrats to
Ellie D (Winner: Animation),
Keren A (Runner Up: Creative Writing) and
Jessie L (Highly Commended: Comic / Cartoon)! π₯³ππhttps://t.co/767vhrURWc
45 students safely returned to parents after what has been an epic week of awesomeness! The students were incredible and Pegasus had the best time. Until the next oneβ¦ π¬π·ποΈβ€οΈ#Pegasus2025
We are through the airport and leaving on the coach very soon - approx 7.10pm departure. ETA at school 10pm will have students message when an hour away.
Parent travel update: flight delayed. We are through security and joining a leisurely lunch - original flight time was 1415. Departure board currently says 1530.
All on board our coach to the airport. Saying βfarewellβ to this beautiful place is especially difficult after such a stunning final location and such an incredible trip experience.
Just in time for a Year 10 Greek class photo.
Will post updates.

Theatre at Epidavros β Our final archaeological site and it was wondrous. Student performances were a highlight. Here are Ben, Dan and Lola performing a speech from Antigone and some improvised Berkovian movement
Mycenae β and it was incredible! Perfect weather too! Just awesome. Excellent intro info on the bus from Tom and James.
Now on to the theatre. #Pegasus2025
Final day of exploring archaeological sites before travel home tomorrow and we have a great selection today - first up the Temple of Apollo Epicurius. Amazing. ποΈπ€―
