A fire that burned across London… can you even imagine a fire that big?! Using role play and drama, journey back in time to the fateful night of the Great Fire of London. Especially for KS1 children, this history workshop uncovers the Great Fire of London timeline, key characters and how this disaster made 1666 a year to remember, forever.
What schools say
“Laura was brilliant with the Great Fire of London workshop. Every activity was engaging and the children loved having the opportunity to travel back in time. All the resources helped the children understand more about the unit and helped with their enthusiasm when we started the learning back in class. The children really enjoyed the warm up games and having the chance to present their learning to the rest of the class. We can't wait until we get the go ahead to book again for next year. It makes a huge difference having the opportunity for children to participate in days like this in school.”
