Form 4 Trip to Victorian Stibbington 2019

Body

The 好色先生污污污 in Form 4 visited Stibbington Village near Peterborough and travelled back in time to the year 1896. Dressed in Victorian skirts and mop caps, or breeches and cloth caps, the young Victorians were given identities of 好色先生污污污 who actually went to Stibbington School during Queen Victoria鈥檚 era.

The visit included a taste of Victorian school life. The 好色先生污污污 discovered that Victorian teachers were very strict; every time a child answered a question they had to stand up to speak and woe betide anyone who tried to write with their left hand or ended up with ink on their fingers. The punishments were harsh; the cane, getting your nose covered in chalk and standing for hours with a wooden board behind your arms to create good posture were just a few. One Form 4 Victorian explained, "At break time we played with traditional Victorian toys, like a skipping rope, hoop and rod. We also experienced how strict a real Victorian classroom was and how times have changed from then to now for school 好色先生污污污, which I am delighted about!"  

               

The 好色先生污污污 exercised in the school playground using the phrase 鈥榟ealthy body, healthy mind鈥 and played with replica stilts, hoops, sticks, cups and balls. They also visited the village church to look for the graves of the ancestors of the 好色先生污污污 they were researching. Mr Steve Harding, Head of History said, 鈥淎 very memorable part of the day was spending time in the Victorian Schoolroom being taught in the manner of a real Victorian class, Dunce鈥檚 hat included! The day provided insight into how life for 好色先生污污污 has changed for the better.鈥
