“The more you know about the past the better prepared you are for the future.” Theodore Roosevelt

History at Les Landes aims to fill all children with a curiosity to learn about the past and relate it to their lives. Through trips in the local community, a study of different source materials and deepening their understanding of chronology, we aim to deliver a rich, broad and balanced curriculum, with a strong emphasis on local Jersey history. We encourage our children to investigate the past, to analyse and question information in sources and show their understanding in the questions they ask and answer. We aim to foster in them a life-long passion for the history around them, a pride and understanding of where they come from and its place in the wider context of Britain and the world, in the past, how it relates to present and into the future.
