High Hurstwood Church of England Primary School

In terms 3 &4 we travel back in time to the Victorian Era, when Queen Victoria led a time of great change. We explore the world of workhouses, industrial development, advances in medicine and public health, and the development of the British Empire. Looking at this period of time through the eyes of a child, we read Street Child - a wonderful book based on the real life experiences of a child in Victorian times.
