In Year 4, we are excited to be learning about the history of the Olympic Games! We've discovered how the Games began in ancient Greece as a series of competitions to honour the Gods. As we continue our lessons, we're exploring how the Olympics have changed over time, including introducing new sports, evolving rules, and increasing participation from athletes worldwide. We're also delving into the cultural, social, and global significance of the Olympics, both in the past and today.
