"Are we going in there?" and "Wow!" were just 2 of the comments of the class, as we walked up to and into Durham Cathedral, as part of our work on magnificent Norman architecture.
That awe and wonder we felt must have been felt by the Saxons who saw the Normans building huge cathedrals and castles!

Welcome to Year 5's blog at Tanfield Lea Community Primary School, a primary school in County Durham who want to broaden our horizons and to show the world what we have to offer.
Our September topic will be 'The Normans', looking at the history of the Norman periods and what we can learn about that time period using primary and secondary sources.
Our literacy will be based on the book 'Goodnight Mr Tom' by Michelle Magorian which takes place during the Second World War.
