Knowledge organisers are not a curriculum. The body of knowledge that children gain at the end of a topic will be much deeper and wider but they are a very useful short document giving parents and children the key facts, vocabulary and information about the topic being studied.

Class 2 Visit to Lunt Roman Fort
We really enjoyed handling and learning about Roman weapons and armour. We learnt some Latin words and found out how the Romans fought and defended. We had a thrilling time taking part in a Roman Battle Drill in the arena!
Our Visit to Sarehole Mill.
We had a great day at Sarehole Mill! We investigated flint-knapped tools, looked at ancient artefacts, built Stone Age shelters and learned how to be hunter-gatherers. We carried out cave-style art and visited an ancient Burnt Mound site. What a day!
