We’re thrilled that the Classical Association is once again supporting @jactdurham.bsky.social
with one of their generous grants. Our kind donors help us open Classics & Classics education to those students who might otherwise be unable to attend the course & we’re so grateful for this.

If you’ve already started to learn Ancient Greek or Latin, but you haven’t quite got to an intermediate level, then perhaps our ‘Post Beginner’ courses are for you.

These courses are aimed at students who have some introductory level of Latin or Greek.

The nights are drawing out, the sun is trying to break through the clouds & it’s getting a bit warmer every day. This also means that we’re one month closer to @jactdurham.bsky.social

We’ll be closing applications for 2025 on the 20th May, so that gives you a grand total of 81 days to register.
