“
The children really enjoyed the presentation. It was really clear and they understood the difference between Georgian and Victorian. Thought the videos were great – we watched the prisoner one later in the day. They really loved those.

The workshop was brilliant! The children’s eyes nearly popped out of their heads during the Gaoler video!
