Events
Year 5 had the exciting opportunity to take part in a workshop 'The Blitz through Connie's eyes' ran by the Museum of London. The children got to learn all about the Blitz and experience what it would have been like to live at that time.
Year 2 have been learning about significant individuals from our local history. They learnt about the life and work of Captain James Cook. Today, Year 2 had the opportunity to visit St. Margarets are Church in Barking Abbey. This church was a very important part of Captain James Cook’s history as he married his wife Elizabeth Batts there 260 years ago in 1762. It was a brilliant way for us to feel part of our local history.
05.05.23 - Year 4 Visit to the British Museum
As a part of our Educational trip on Ancient Egypt, the children visited the British Museum. They looked at the beautiful artefacts from Egypt which enriched their knowledge about Egyptian history, culture, people and many other interesting things. The Egyptian objects told them a story of life and death in the ancient Nile Valley. They also attended a presentation to explore the famous tomb-painting of Nebamun hunting in the marshes. On the whole the children along with the adults enjoyed their trip to the British Museum.
01.02.23 - Time Capsule
The children in Year 2 went across to the Abbey to take part in burying the time capsule that the children all took part in creating. This project involved many local schools in the community. The children were very excited to think that the time capsule will be dug up in years to come.
