This is an assembly/short play based on the story of Boudicca which lasts approximately 15 minutes and culminates in the whole class singing the Boudicca song from ‘Horrible Histories’. Included = playscript (with character list); script to introduce and conclude play (based on Monty Python’s ‘What have the Romans ever done for us?’ sketch); link to video of Horrible Histories song and a copy of the lyrics for the song. It is possible to include all the class as you need plenty of Celts for Boudicca’s tribe and some Roman soldiers too. I have done this twice (successfully!) and the second time I had a different Boudicca in each scene due to the number of children who wanted a speaking part. Obviously, you can add/adapt scenes if you wish to. This resource is available as part of a Romans activities bundle saving you 33% on the resources overall.

Assembly all about the romans, involves a lot of acting and has a line for each child. My year 3 class really enjoyed this and the whole school were interested in Romans the rest of the week. Approriate for y2-y6! Enjoy :)

Practice exam questions are also included with help on how to structure their answers. These involve a Source inference (2 mark question) and two 8 mark comparison questions where students are told to compare the festival to the Lupercalia.
