Throughout the day children carried out times-tables drills, copper-plate handwriting, spelling and reading. On the playground children performed a drill where there they marched, stretched and exercised. During a thoroughly engaging Victorian drama workshop in the large hall, Year 5 took part in roll play activities to help them understand the daily life of a poor working child in Victorian London.
Despite the harsh rules and even harsher punishments, pupils enjoyed dressing up and learning about Victorian times. However, they were very relieved to remove their caps and bonnets and return to the present day!
