Cecilia Mansford drops in on Year 2

Last week, we had a visitor from the past! Cecilia Mansford came to our class because she was best friends with a special lady called Florence Nightingale. We have been learning about Florence as part of our Nurturing Nurses topic.

Cecilia told us all about Florence's life and also showed us how to talk with a fan and write with a quill, just like they would have done when Florence Nightingale was alive. We also dressed up in costumes from Victorian times.

Here are some pictures from our day.

A trip back to the Victorian Era

Well done Year 5 for putting on a brilliant assembly. Beautiful singing and performing by everybody. Here are pictures of us practising a Victorian play called "Cruel times"
