Class 1 visited Blists Hill as part of our history learning on what life at home was like in the past.

We took part in a Delivery Day workshop, delivering post to Goldilocks’ cottage, the drapers for Little Red Riding Hood and the bakery for the Gingerbread Man. We learnt how to dip candles and how clothes were washed in the laundry.

We loved travelling back in time for the day!
