Visit to Astley Hall

Year Two enjoyed their visit to Astley Hall this week as part of their history topic: Homes in the past. Year Two's focus was how technology has changed over time and how people have been affected by it. We found out lots of information about how the people lived. We now know how they used to wash their clothes, entertain each other and how they cooked their food. 

When we got back into school we reflected on what we had learned during the visit. I asked who would like to be a servant in the Victorian times. 

Tillie quickly replied " Oh no you don't have proper toilets and you have to change the chamber pots."  I think I agree with Tillie!!
