18.06.23 - Year 6 Local Area Walk

Year 6 had a fantastic time exploring our local area. Right outside school, we read about the Abbey Green - many of us had no idea how ancient the grounds by our school are! It was once home to some of the most significant religious buildings in the country. William the Conqueror stayed there after his victory in 1066. We spent time looking at the ruins of an Anglo-Saxon Abbey at Barking Abbey, one of the oldest Christian sites in the country. We found out that Kings, Queens and even Saints had spent time here! We spent time at the Job Drain memorial; a remarkable soldier during WW1 whom received a Victoria Cross for his outstanding bravery. We then walked through Barking's high street and discussed the different buildings and dates we could spot.

16.06.23 - Year 4 Local Area Trip

This week the children went on a trip around Barking. They visited several places and learned about our heritage. In the afternoon they attended workshop and learned about the different modes of transport used in Barking.

16.06.23 - EYFS Local Area Walk

EYFS enjoyed a lovely sunny walk around Barking. We have been learning all about the famous footballer Bobby Moore, so we were very excited to take a photo by his street sign. During our walk, we took note of the various features of our local area and discussed these when we returned to school.
