ROBINS GREAT FIRE OF LONDON DAY

Robins had the pleasure of finding out about the Great Fire of London when Off the Page, and the very knowledgeable Fiona, visited them for the whole day!  We used a range of drama and practical activities to find out what it was like living through the fire.

We spent the morning finding out about the various working roles there would have been in the 1600's.  We became leather workers, writers, bakers, weavers, doctors and candle-makers!  We learnt new skills whilst acting out how the fire started to unfold.

 

In the afternoon we became archaeologists and searched for clues to find out which buildings had been burned down in the fire.

Thank you to my amazing parent helpers for staying all day, to Fiona from Off the Page for making this such a memorable day and to ALL of Robins for being absolute super stars!  What a fantastic day!
