TERM 5

 

Schools then, schools now

How were schools different in Victorian times from schools today?

In 'Schools then, schools now' we will be able to answer the enquiry question: How were schools different in Victorian times from schools today? We will learn about some of the history of our own school, before finding out what schools were like in Victorian times. We will study artefacts from Victorian schools to find out what they were used for and what they can tell us about the past. We will 'meet' Samuel Wilderspin, the creator of infant school education, and experience what it was like to learn in a Victorian classroom. At the end of our project, they will compare schools in Victorian times with schools today.

 If you require further support with any of the home learning arrangements, please speak to Mrs Handford. 

 

Our PE days are: Monday and Thursday

Please come to school dressed in your PE kit on these days with earrings removed and long hair tied up.

Year 2 Forest School: Tuesday

Please ensure your child brings a water bottle to school each day. 

Please apply sun cream before school in warm weather.
