The Terrible Tudors have begun their reign in Swans class this week, and the children have all been excited to get learning about one of the most influential families in British History. On Thursday 31st of October, we re-enacted the Battle of Bosworth- the last of the civil wars in the Wars of the Roses. The children got into character, creating their House Banners, before taking to the battle field. We learned all about Richard III’s interesting rise to power and his fall from the throne at the hands of Henry Tudor. It was a fierce battle, and the children played their part brilliantly- Well done Swans!
