This week in history, Year 1 have been learning about the Great Fire of London. They have been learning about where London is, why the Great Fire of London was a significant event and what happened on 2nd September 1666 and the days following it. They did a fantastic job at listening to and acting out the story and then filling in the gaps to an incomplete story of the Great Fire of London. They are excited about being able to act this out independently in our role play area next week. Well done Year 1!
