Class 6’s visit to 1666

25th September 2025Jayne Rodgers

Class 6 took a huge step back in time today with our Great Fire of London workshop. We were visited by Thomas Farriner and Samuel Pepys who gave us first hand information about the tragic event and who were both mightily impressed by the knowledge that the children were able to share. We also demonstrated our dramatic talents as the children became the wind, flames, houses and fire fighting citizens in ’10 second freeze frame’ activities. We had an amazing time!

I was very proud of the behaviour of ALL the KS1 children today and our visitor commented on the beautifully calm atmosphere as she moved through our school.

Well done everyone!

Today, Year 3 enjoyed another fabulous football PE session with Coach Morgan from Activ8. He was super impressed with everyone’s efforts but there were a few children who really stood out and received a postcard for great listening and sportsmanship – top job, everyone – well done!

Class 7 Time Travellers!

Today, Class 7 had 2 special visitors. One was Thomas Fariner telling us about how and why the Great Fire of London started. The second was Samuel Pepys telling us about what he had written in his diary during this great, historical event. Both let us make freeze frames from the event and we even sang nursery rhymes as well. We loved it!

Crew Knowles – RE

This week in RE, we looked at building background information on the different forms of the Hindu god. We learned about Ganesha, Lakshmi and Vishnu to name just a few. We also managed to get in some active learning by moving around the classroom to collect the information!

Class Spetch – We love reading!

Yesterday in our reading lesson, we investigated the meaning of some of the tricky vocabulary in this weeks text. We had a little bit of word bingo to spot some of the words and then practiced reading around the word to see if we could predict what the words meant. It was lovely to see lots of great collaboration around the classroom when the children independently answered their vocabulary questions! Well done everyone!
