Year 2 Re-create ther Great Fire of London
During their topic on the Great Fire of London, the children asked the question ‘how quickly does fire spread?’. So, as a result, Year 2 recreated the scene at the back of the school. With Geoff on standby, armed with a hose, Year 2 watched as their closely packed houses, made from straw, slowly turned to ash.
The children also visited Southgate Fire Station and had a great time with a tour of the station, climbing on the fire engines and using the hoses.
These experiences were a great way to end an exhilarating topic
