Much of the children's work in History is developed through topics which are often linked to other subject areas. We aim to make the work relevant and real where possible, drawing on the children's own experiences.

We encourage the use of historical artifacts and documents, so giving the children first hand evidence and a chance to make up their own minds about past events. This develops an awareness of past events and learning to prepare them for life in the community and helps them to understand how we can learn from the past.
