On Wednesday 13th February, the children in Classes 3,4 and 5 broke all of the rules about school uniform! They were participating in a special day, and came dressed in their Victorian finery! A special day, devoted to History and designed to help the children understand what is was like to be a child in Victorian days was a huge success.
As well as washing socks in the poss tub, the children made broth and bread and revisited some favourite Geordie folk songs from the past.
Of course, when it came to smiling for the camera, the rules back then were quite different....
And was it fun to go to school in Victorian times?
What do you think?
