Burghley House – Tuesday 8^th October

Year 1 went on a school trip to Burghley House as part of their history unit on toys and childhood. They had a tour of the house and learnt all about how the Victorians lived. They then were able to look at different Victorian artefacts and had to guess what they were used for. They particularly enjoyed trying on the old hats. The class then had a workshop making toys that would have been used by the Victorians, and they enjoyed sharing their new toys with each other.
