About this curriculum

Torquay, on the South coast of Devon, famously known as ‘The English Riviera’, has a history that starts some 450,000 years ago with. early human artefacts found in Kents Cavern. Tourism during the Victorian Era molded Torquay into the rich and diverse seaside town it is today.

We understand that many of our children will continue to live and work in our local area, therefore our aim is to give them the best opportunity to be ambitious and successful. In addition to local history, we want the children to also explore and enquire about national and international history to prepare them for the world they are growing up in.

Year 5/6 Boys Football Cockington A 3-0 Shiphay A Goals: Finley Alfie C Jack POTM: Roman - Made some great saves and deserved his clean sheet, making sure we was still in the game. Last Thursday we hosted Shiphay in the first game of the new season. After defeating them 2-1 previously the boys looked to make it another win. The first half was very slow and the boys struggled, thanks to Roman making some great saves and some good blocks from Leo, we went into half time 0-0. We woke up second half and Finley grabbed another goal, coolly slotting between the keepers legs. Alfie grabbed the second in pretty much identical fashion. Finally Captain Jack scored a lovely solo goal. Good start to the season. Well done boys.
