At St. John’s C of E (VA), Cliviger, we strive to secure chronological narrative of the history of Britain’s past and that of the wider world. We consider how people’s lives shaped the nation and gain knowledge and understanding of history around the world. We follow the Learning Challenge Curriculum and adapt these to fit with our own Adventurous Afternoons.

When we learnt about the Romans we went to Ribchester Museum and dressed up. Year 4
We learnt about slavery and we role played a slave auction and it made it really real. Year 5
I love looking at artefacts and where they have come from. They tell us a lot about the past and give us reasons why things have changed today. Year 6
