History is brought to life for Year 1 at Saltram House

Published: 06 May, 2011

Year 1 visited Saltram House at Plympton as part of their History topic, 'How we used to live.'

The visit to Saltram allowed the children to experience both upstairs and downstairs life in a large country house. They visited the kitchens, housekeepers' room and the school room and they also went round the beautiful rooms in the main house.

They had the opportunity to dress in period costumes, look for mice, and even sit in a sedan chair.
