The Cathedral School of St Saviour and St Mary Overy

At Cathedral School, we want to ignite in young people a passion for history and the lessons it can teach us.
Children are urged to study historical facts, but also to think about how those events affected the individuals who lived through them and how they affect us today.
We use a variety of artefacts, books, and field trips to places like the Tower of London, the Imperial War Museum, Hampton Court Palace, the Churchill war chambers, and Kensington Palace to bring history to life and ensure that kids feel truly linked to the past.
Children can learn about local history by attending events at places like Southwark Cathedral and the Old Vic Theatre, for instance.
