The children will be took part in three workshops which link to our topic Crime and Punishment.

These workshops included:

The court room:

This involved the children acting out two cases from Victorian times. It was then up the children (the jury) to decide whether they were guilty or not guilty.

The Tour:

The children were taken on a fantastic tour which included meeting some great characters along the way. It was a look at crime and punishment through the ages, this included the children learning what it was like to be in prison a long time ago and also the kind of punishments there were.
