Year 2 pupils at GPFS were very excited to visit the Tower of London. Despite the rain, the pupils had a great time exploring the Tower and learning more about its history. During the visit, pupils got to see the Crown Jewels and participate in an exciting workshop all about the Great Fire of London. We were very proud to show all of our knowledge, such as where the fire started, how long it lasted, and how it spread across London. We also learned many new facts, including how many people were affected by the fire and what people did at the time to help stop it.

One of our favourite parts of the day was watching the guards outside the Crown Jewels. We enjoyed watching them march up and down, and we were very excited when we even managed to make them laugh. Overall, the pupils had a fantastic day and returned to school with lots of new knowledge and happy memories.
