Year 2 Travels Back to the Great Fire

Year 2 travelled back in time this week as they stepped into the shoes of Samuel Pepys! The children took on the role of Pepys and imagined what it would have been like to witness the Great Fire of London. They wrote diary entries describing how quickly the fire spread and captured the sounds they could hear all around them. To make their writing feel even more real, the children created their own tea-stained paper, giving their work a wonderfully historical appearance. They were incredibly proud of their finished diary entries and have proudly displayed them in the classroom for everyone to enjoy!
