What an amazing day we had on Thursday at the Howick Historical Village! We learnt about the games children played in the 1840s and that these toys were often made by the children themselves. We also found out about the kinds of communication that were used at this time and had a fantastic semaphore demonstration. Then we discovered what it felt like to be at school in the 1840s with slate to write on, timetables to recite ...and watch out for the cane!!
Thanks so much to our parent helpers, we hope you enjoyed the day too.
Look out for students' posts about the visit....

Me too! There was so much to see. It was really interesting to see how people lived back the-n. Can you imagine having to wear the same dress everyday?
