Year 3

In the autumn term, Year 3 learnt about Spartacus and the Roman Empire, such as interpreting the past through role play and using secondary sources of information to find out what Britain was like before the invasion of the Romans.

Year 4

As part of their Leif Erikson and Viking topic, Year 4 were able to give reasons for Viking raids through analysing evidence and they also used a timeline to place events.

Year 5

Year 5 have enjoyed their Victorian topic with Nellie Bly as their focus character. They have been hard at work ranking sources of information about Victorian workhouses and even had a special visitor - Miss Tomlinson's grandad, who came to talk about his working life in mining.
