Happy New Year! HAPPY New Year! HAPPY! OK?

Devastated by this very sad news. Ms Bateson was one of the best and most enthusiastic classics teachers around. So glad she got her nostos in Norfolk, but so sad it had to be so brief. Sleep well my good friend. oga.wggs.org.uk/news/important…

#classicstwitter I need your ideas. Last week we lost our dear friend and colleague, Ms Bateson. She dedicated over 30 years to teaching Classics in state schools and I feel this needs to be celebrated. I’m thinking a prize in her name or similar. Classics for All could you help?

As a tribute to Ms Bateson, we would like to install a bench at the school dedicated to her memory. We are also collecting money for Kidney Research in her name. To make a donation please click here: bit.ly/3FSnQpj

Can you help? We’re looking to make contact with Classics people who went on to jobs and careers outside academia, and employers who have hired people with a Classics background. If that’s you, or someone you know, please say hi. Any help would be MUCH appreciated. Please RT

Anyone interested? Please RT.

Absolutely obsessed with our new Sappho display. #classics #lgbthistory

I've listened to Pompeii by Bastille hundreds of times. But today was the 1st time I watched the music video with subtitles on. And they're not singing 'eh eh oh', they're singing 'eheu' which is Latin for 'oh no' because it's about Pompeii so there's Latin IN THE SONG OHMYDAYS

#classicstwitter We're choosing between Suburani and CLC 5th ed to use with Year 8 and 9 next year (Year 7 do Stages 1-2 of CLC 5th ed, and we switch to Latin to GCSE in Year 10). Would be really interested to hear people's experiences with either book! Pros? Cons?
