Year 5's enthusiasm for our Victorian topic is amazing!  So far they have written diaries to empathise with the miserable life of a workhouse child and used "Hot Seating" to question children who have taken on the role of one of these poor characters.  We will be going back in time to the Victorian period when we visit Quarry Bank Mill next month.  There, the children will be invited to work as apprentices, and discover what life was really like for children in those times.   I am looking forward to a great year ahead with Year 5!   Mrs Blomeley
