Teachers of Classics in sixth form colleges and secondary schools regularly provide extra-curricular activities alongside their bread-and-butter classes in Latin, Classical Civilisation, Ancient History, and Greek. With the on-going squeeze on the provision of these four classical subjects, it is inevitable that teachers of Classics look to other areas within their schools and colleges both to maintain and to promote the face of Classics. The purpose of this paper is to explain the delivery and the thinking behind a weekly extra-curricular activity called ‘Classics on Film’ that was set up at Peter Symonds College in 2018 and which has now continued for four years. This activity encompasses cine-antiquity; in other words, a class that focuses on films depicting the ancient world. By breaking down this project and some of its results, this paper aims to give teachers of Classics and others awareness of the methods, resources, and challenges when delivering an extra-curricular activity on cine-antiquity. Furthermore, it aims to provide a model that other teachers might adapt or use as a springboard for their own bespoke cine-antiquity activity.1

六年级学院和中学的经典教师定期提供课外活动以及拉丁语、古典文明、古代历史和希腊语的日常课程。随着这四门古典学科的供应不断紧缩，古典文学教师不可避免地会将目光投向学校和学院的其他领域，以维护和提升古典文学的面貌。本文的目的是解释彼得西蒙兹学院于 2018 年设立的名为“电影经典”的每周课外活动背后的交付和思考，该活动现已持续四年。这项活动包括电影古董；换句话说，这是一门专注于描绘古代世界的电影的课程。通过分解这个项目和它的一些结果，本文旨在让经典教师和其他人了解在开展关于古代电影的课外活动时的方法、资源和挑战。此外，它旨在提供一个模型，供其他教师改编或用作他们自己定制的古董电影活动的跳板。1个
