Spring topic - The Great Fire of London! 

Over the spring term we will be learning all about the GFoL. This is an exciting topic that the children will be immersed in. In DT we will be making fire engines, this will link in with our History but also Science as we look to identify which materials will be most suitable to ensure a sturdy fire engine. In Literacy we will be exploring the GFoL from the perspective of a flea called Vlad who was at the heart of the fire in the 1600s. Please remember to bring in your cardbord boxes at the start of the half term (named) ready for our DT sessions.
