What do teachers say?

“Our children loved their Victorian experience day.  I was shocked with the amount of high quality equipment and artefacts Clare brought, both replicas and antiques. Children were engaged throughout the day, which was well planned and thought out to fit our school needs.  A fantastic day had by all!

– Miss Morton Armthorpe Shaw Wood Academy

“We were transported back in time to the Victorian era.  A truly immersive experience that excited and captivated the children’s imagination.  Our children were left wanting more!”

– Mrs Sawyer Year 5 teacher Doncaster

What do the children say?

“My favourite part was the washing.  I found it quite tricky but I thought to myself, Victorians would have had to do this every day.”

– Emily

“I liked experiencing the school part.  When we were doing the handwriting, they did letters different, especially the f.”

– Matthew

“I liked making Victorian toys because I like crafting and playing with toys.”

– Praise

“I liked the toys because it was fascinating how they were at least 120 years old.  Spinning tops were really fun.  When you get it, it’s very beautiful how the pattern swirls.”
