To enhance their history learning about old and new toys, Year 2 visited Abbey House Museum. The children thoroughly enjoyed exploring life in the past, discovering how things have changed over time and examining historical artefacts.
Walking through the Victorian street was particularly exciting and helped the children imagine what life might have been like long ago.
During a workshop, the class compared toys from the past with modern toys and learned how older toys were often made from very different materials than those used today.
