My favourite thing from our trip to Howick Historical Village was when we
went to the School. We had to be in a girls line and a boys line, which
we do not do often at school.
When
we went into the classroom the boys were in one line on the other side
of the room, and girls line up on the other half. Our teacher Mrs Mills
was very strict on us but she was still kind.
First
of all she told us where to sit with a partner then she told us to read
the date. Next we had to read what was on the board and it said “Whatever you do, do it will”.
Mrs Mills talked about Queen Victoria. In 1850 Queen Victoria was 18.
Mrs Mills also talked about the map and she asked us where different
countries were.
Later
on we had to do some Handwriting. Some people use handwriting paper
with a pen and ink, some had what we like to call slate, it is a
chalkboard and chalk. Mrs Mills said “ this has to be the same as the
top or else you will face the consequences”.
When
we were all finished Mrs Mills said “now class write your names on the
top of the paper, if it doesn't fit then write it on the bottom”. In
the end Miss G asked “ do you want to stay at this school or do you
prefer school now”. Some people said school now and other people
prefered school in the past. I prefered school now because the children
went to school in the past had a very hard life as children.
