Pompeii
Subject Range: Cultural, Geography
What you’ll experience: Pompeii is one of the most significant proofs of Roman civilization. The thick layer of volcanic material which submerged it, made up to a large extent of ash and lapilli, solidified into extremely hard stone meaning that the city has remained intact, not just buildings but also the contents of houses and shops which provide an absolutely fascinating picture of daily life from that era.
Select Says: The site has minimal shade, so it’s important for students to bring sunscreen, a hat and water.
