Victorian School

Date: 9th Nov 2025 @ 4:44pm

This week we have been learning about Thomas Barnado, and in particular life in Victorian times. We have been learning about how the lives of rich and poor people were different, and how the poor people really suffered, compared to the rich. We also learnt about what it was like in a Victorian school. We learnt that it was very strict and that in some schools they wrote with a chalkboard and chalk. We then had a go at using chalk and black paper to write a sentence. We all found it extremely tricky!
