St. Patrick’s Classics Club

🔔 UPDATE 🔔

We are starting a new topic at St. Patrick’s Classics Club tomorrow, The Battle of Thermopylae.

300 Spartans against 3 million Persians - the Spartans call it a fair fight.

Xerxes thinks he's won until he finds out there's another 10,000 like that in Sparta.

New members welcome as we get into some epic history:

Greek myths give us a lot to think about 🤔

The gods are usually cruel and selfish but at times kind to their favourites 😇

Heroes are cunning and ruthless with enemies but courageous defenders of their homes and families 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧

Every last event in nature - from earthquakes to sunrises - has a divine cause 🌄

We look into these stories and learn why they have endured for thousands of years

Starting Monday for S1 to S3

Join us for all this:
