Burning down Pudding Lane

 

On Friday afternoon, we re-enacted The Great Fire of London by burning down Pudding Lane. We went back in time and saw how quickly the fire spread, we were able to then use our knowledge to help put the fire out. Samuel Pepys was there writing his diary! We tried to use water squirters and buckets of water to put the fire out, but this did not stop the fire from spreading. Mrs Giles-Cox then used a fire hook to create a fire break. We have a great afternoon applying what we had learned this term in a real life situation.  

This week in Zebra Class:

As part of our Great Fire of a London topic we had a very special visit from the Fire Service to teach us all about fire safety. The children were so excited and learnt a lot from the workshop. Also this week the children in Zebra Class really enjoyed exploring the apparatus in gymnastics making the basic 5 gymnastic shapes.
