Freshwater Theatre group visited us today and the Year 2 children had fun engaging in a historical drama workshop exploring the events of The Great Fire of London. Through drama they experienced the London of 1666 as they recreated life in Pudding Lane. They became the fire as it grew and spread quickly across the city and met Samuel Pepys an eye-witness of the times. It was a great way to involve the children in history and one which helped them remember key facts.
Aaliyah said I enjoyed putting on my imagination hat and travel back in time 351 years.
