On Friday 11th October, Mrs James and Mr Murray had the pleasure of taking 11 ear students to the Roman Dig at Carlisle Cricket Club. On arrival, students were given a tour of the site and a background to the areas Roman past, including the reign of Emperor Septimus Severus, who was the first Roman Emperor descended from Africa, and also the dedication stone created for his wife Julia Domna, which was one of a range of impressive items found on the site. Students were able to see the different job roles and skills available within both Archaeology and Heritage/History, including medal detecting, sculpting, 3D Printing, collating finds and live work in the archaeological trenches. All students were able to discuss the routes into Archaeology and History, and also learned about the transferrable skills that students could develop if they were to complete Archaeology passports. Students also got to handle archaeological finds, provide feedback on the future of the site and even dressed as Roman soldiers! All students had a fantastic experience and were incredibly grateful for the opportunity provided by volunteers and staff at Uncovering Roman Carlisle. #madeinmorton #romandig #archaeology

On Wednesday we had two teams in action at Harraby 3G against Central Academy: U12 National Cup – A fantastic performance by the Year 7 girls in their first game of the season, they were extremely unlucky and the score line did not reflect their attacking performance narrowly missing out with a final score of 4-2. There were two top quality goals from Ella L and Jessica R giving the girls a boost, however, the Central Academy goalkeeper put in an phenomenal performance and saved at least 10 of Lexie T’s shots on goal. A great performance by all, as we move forward to the county cup. U14 County Cup – The girls put in a solid effort throughout the game, and really improved their performance through the second half against a well organised Central side. Unfortunately the girls missed out on a win but we are looking forward to playing other schools in future games. Mrs Nugent #madeinmorton #educationwithcharacter
