Today, we are thrilled to share the exciting highlights of our recent Great Fire of London Experience Day, where history came to life for our young learners. As your children immersed themselves in this hands-on exploration of the past, we wanted to give you a front-row seat to the adventure they had.
Interactive Workshop
The heart of the experience lay in the interactive workshops designed to engage young minds. Our Key Stage One students stepped into the shoes of Londoners from centuries past. The hands-on activities not only made history tangible but also sparked curiosity and creativity.
Pudding Lane Bakery
Our budding bakers took a trip to the Pudding Lane Bakery, where they not only learned about the popular baked goods of the 17th century but also had the opportunity to make their own fire-shaped shortbread. The classroom was abuzz with excitement and laughter as the children created tasty treats to share and enjoy.
Science Lab
To add a scientific twist to the historical journey, our students entered the science lab for a captivating experiment on the fire triangle. The children explored the essential components needed to create a fire. This hands-on science activity not only reinforced historical concepts but also integrated valuable scientific principles, making learning a memorable experience.
As the day finished the children were able to take home their shortbread treats after all their hard work. We hope you enjoyed them!
