Victorian Day

We held a Victorian Day at school where we all came dressed in Victorian clothing and participated in a Victorian school routine. Before entering the class Miss Grieve (Miss Threadbere) gave us all a penny and we had to pay for attending the school day. We sang a hymn in the morning and did some Victorian handwriting using our copybooks and slates. We also recited the alphabet and times tables. During the morning we had an inspection from the headmistress...
We also participated in an exercise drill and did some observational drawings. In the afternoon, we even tried some boiled sweets.
