This half term, we will be exploring our topic question 'Why was London burning?' We will be reading 'Toby and the Great Fire of London' to find out about life back in 1966 and comparing it to London now. We will be exploring England’s capital city (London) and learning about how the emergency services have changed over time (focusing on Florence Nightingale - nursing and the fire service). We will be reading 'Samuel Pepys' diary and will be writing our own diary entries. Did you know that the fire was rumoured to have started in a bakery? Can you bake some of the famous Great Fire of London cakes as one of your home learning activities?
