P6B loved dramatising a Victorian School day with Izzy.

Izzy was very strict with us.  We started by lining up outside the classroom and taking a register with Victorian names.

Our lessons started with a hand check, to make sure we were not filthy or wearing jewellery or nail varnish.  Some of us did not pass the test!  We then had to make sure we sat up straight, looked to the front and kept our hands on the table at all times.

We recited the school prayer.

We completed a handwriting and language lesson as well as reciting a poem and singing ‘All things bright and beautiful’.  We even did a gym lesson at our tables.

If we made a mistake, moved or made a noise, Miss Swanson punished us.  She even ordered some of us to face the wall!

We thoroughly enjoyed having a Victorian school day but we are even more happy that school is not like that now.
