The Great Fire of London is one of the most important events that ever happened in our city and Class 2 will be learning all about it during the Spring2 half term.
The fire happened almost 400 years ago but we still remember it today because of how important it was.
We even have a monument close to us that remembers the fire. You can walk across London Bridge to see it.
Samuel Pepys became famous because of the diary he kept about the Great Fire.
