A study by the University of Toronto, shows that the Ancient #Greek language can help cure [?] dyslexia, because it activates many parts of the brain, compared to other languages. greekcitytimes.com/2021/03/0…

The Roman emperor Hadrian and his lover Antinous are depicted in these marble busts, made in the second century AD. Find out more about their relationship in our audio commentary: ow.ly/F7dP30rtLU0 Hadrian was born #OnThisDay in AD 76.
Look forward to hearing more @DrArleneHH
My research into #Classics and #employability is continuing. I had a great meeting this morning with @oxfordcareers in which we discussed internships, graduate destinations, recruiter priorities, workshops and @oxfordclassics alumni stories. Part of wider project to gather data.

Great first session with U3 @NorwichHigh yesterday sharing ideas about the Greek gods and their roles. Looking forward to designing our own gods next week.
Members of this term's virtual Junior Classical Society will shortly be receiving some very exciting packs! Girls will be creating their own Greek God, making masks on a Greek Drama theme, designing Olympic crowns and debating what Herakles’ 13th labour might have been!
