History
At Hamp Nursery and Infants School, we aim to provide an engaging learning of History experiences which stimulates their curiosity.
By the end of KS1, we provide children a broad and balanced view of the History of Britain and other societies. As part of this, children will develop a well-rounded knowledge of the past and its events, with intention to improve every child’s understanding of the world around them and their own heritage.
