Year 2 seaside visitor

Instead of Year 2 visiting the museum, the museum came to us courtesy of St Barbes, Lymington.

Rebecca gave a detailed presentation featuring photographs showing how the seaside has changed since the Victorian times. There are many similarities but there are also lots of differences.

The children had the opportunity to dress up and handle different artifacts; including an old fashioned camera, a penny lick and a metal bucket and a wooden spade. They even got to see a woolen swimming costume!

After seeing old fashioned and original postcards, the children had a go at writing and designing their own postcards.

Thank you to Rebecca and St Barbes museum, we have learned a great deal.
