Welcome to History

This year in History we take a journey through some of the key events between 1066 and 1603. We start with a look at migration to the British Isles over the last 2,000 years, including Celts, Romans, Vikings, Anglo-Saxons, Normans, Jewish Migration, European Migration, Hugeuenots, Irish and Windrush. Moving on we look at the Norman Conquest, and the importance of Normans to English History, and even its impact today. We will also look at key people throughout History, such as Thomas Becket & King John, as well as key events (for example Black Death), and key changes to society (Castles). This is followed by an exploration of the West African Kingdoms during the Middle Ages, before finally moving onto the War of the Roses and the Tudor period, covering all the monarchs and key events.
