Yr2 Travel Back In Time To 1666

Posted: 15th January 2020

Yr2W travelled back to 1666 with the Freshwater Theatre Company where pupils learnt about the Great Fire of London and what it was like to live in 17th Century London.

Mary Porter, a ‘resident’ of Pudding Lane, 1666 helped children recreate life in Pudding Lane, exploring what life was like before the Great Fire, the causes of the fire and its aftermath.

All pupils were fully engaged in the workshop and thoroughly enjoyed being time travellers for the day. A great way to learn about significant historical events.
