Bringing children and young people to see the world renown mosaics helps them to gain a lively sense of the Roman way of life. Learn how mosaics were created, for example, or understand the process of the Roman heating system (a Hypocaust). Children will enjoy spinning wool fibres into yarn and dressing up in Roman tunics. As well as historical points of interest, the location of the Roman Villa on the South Downs Way provides many points of geographical and biological discussion. Over 200 school groups visit Bignor Roman Villa each year.
