It is study as usual for year 7, after an enjoyable Christmas holiday, as they begin an in depth look at their new History topic: the Church in the Middle Ages. Having first considered the influences on our daily lives; thoughts and actions, in the twenty first century, Pupils considered the role of the church in shaping the lives of our Medieval ancestors. Why was the church so powerful? Why was it so influential? What roles and functions did it fulfil? These, are the key questions pupils have been considering in the study of their new History topic!
