We have been learning what it was like to live during the Victorian Era especially in Scotland. In class, we have been learning about the workhouse and who lived there. We have written fantastic diary entries from the perspective of a child living and working in the workhouse. Alongside this, we have studied the life of Florence Nightingale. We made paper lamps just like the one that Florence carried throughout the hospital at night. We have compared the medicines that\u00a0 were prescribed in the Victorian Times to the medicine we use now in the 21st Century.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, we enjoyed a fantastic trip to Tarves Heritage Centre and to Haddo House.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/20180321_102752.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8967 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/20180321_102752-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/20180321_102752-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/20180321_102752.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We furthered our knowledge about Victorian household items and we had the opportunity to pretend to use Victorian irons, lanterns and washing boards.<\/p>\n<p>We dressed up as Victorian children and took part in a role play Victorian classroom.

The house is beautifully decorated and we even had the opportunity to see the bedroom where Queen Victoria had once stayed with her husband, Prince Albert. We were fascinated by the bell system linked to each room and the secret doors which led to unknown hallways.
