2 years ago Posted on 25th Mar 2025 by Beth Davies Trip to Blists Hill As part of our History learning, we visited the Victorian town of Blists Hill. We were lucky enough to dress up as real Victorian children and experience a reading, writing and maths lesson in a traditional Victorian – style classroom! ( With a very strict teacher…). We then explored all of the different shops and houses within the village. We were intrigued by how different life was in the Victorian times and now appreciate how lucky we are to live in the 21st Century!
