Year Two Great Fire of London Day from History Off The Page

Year Two have learnt more about the Great Fire of London thanks to a visit from History Off The Page (funded by the wonderful PTA!).  Over the course of the day, they learnt about the shops that there would have been at the time and the sorts of jobs that people would have had. They looked at a map of London and discussed how the fire started.  In the afternoon, they had the opportunity to be archaeologists and to 'dig' for artefacts in order to work out what shop they may have come from.  

The day has really enhanced their learning on the topic.  Visit the gallery for even more photos of the day!
