On Thursday 23rd October, as part of their Victorians topic, Primary 4 learners delved into the culinary traditions of the era by exploring organic watercress sandwiches —a popular delicacy among Victorian society. Through hands-on activities, the children learned how watercress was prized not only for its peppery flavour but also for its health benefits, especially during a time when nutrition was becoming a growing concern.

By preparing and tasting their own sandwiches using fresh ingredients, the pupils gained a sensory insight into Victorian life, sparking lively discussions about class, diet, and daily routines in the 19th century.
