Good, Better, Best: Year 6 experience life as a Victorian pupil.

Year 6 took a step back in time today to experience life at school as a Victorian child. After paying their school fee with an authentic Victorian penny, they had nails and hair inspected before they settled down for a hard morning's learning under the strict Victorian school conditions.

In maths they learned all about farthings, pennies and shillings, whilst in English they got to write with real nibs, ink and blotting paper.

During recreation they played some traditional playground games and worked together to produce a class portrait of Queen Victoria.

Take a look at some of the photos from their day.
