In class, especially during geography, science and religion lessons, the pupils ask all sorts of interesting questions- some of which we can answer straight away, and some of which we need to research.
This blog is for the pupils to record these curious questions and then for others -classmates, teachers, parents and friends, to post their answers. Sometimes there might even be more than one answer to these curious questions!

Greenwich Meantime
We were learning about time zones in Maths and Anselm asked "Who was the first to invent time zones and who decided that Greenwich, London should be 0 degrees Longitude?"
Greenwich Mean Time seems to have come into popular use in the 1880's
