Lanhydrock brings history alive for Year 5
Published: 08 November, 2010
As part of their history studies about the Victorians, Year 5
paid a visit to Lanhydrock House in Cornwall. The children were
divided into three groups and got to dress up in a range of
Victorian costumes.
The first group learned about being a servant in Victorian times
and looked at the vast kitchens. The second group experienced
being a child in Victorian times by exploring the nursery and
playing with some of the toys. The third group found out all about
the family who lived at Lanhydrock, the Agar-Robarts. The
children were fascinated to hear about the lavish lives they
led.
