They took a coach up to the South Bank and visited the South Bank Centre, before taking a river boat cruise down the Thames and eating their lunch in Jubilee Gardens.

The children had been learning all about London, looking closely at where London is on the map and finding out about London landmarks, so this gave them the opportunity to see some of the landmarks in real life.

This really supported the later learning they had, about how London differed in the past and learning all about the Great Fire of 1666. This trip was a great opportunity for them to put their learning in context.
