Recently, the children in year 2 visited the Thackray Medical Museum to learn more about the life of Florence Nightingale. The children have been learning about keeping healthy in the classroom as well as how hospitals had changed over time. At the museum, they acted out different scenarios that would have happened when Florence Nightingale reached Scutari during the Crimean War. Afterwards, Alexa said, “A lady dressed up as Florence Nightingale and told us about her life. We learnt that she had a pet owl, she loved school but her sister always distracted her.” Logan added, “I liked when we went onto Disease Street. The streets were dirty and there was blood on the walls.”
