On Monday Primary 7 stepped back into the Victorian era at The Argory near Armagh.
The visit connected with the current World Around Us topic of The Victorians. The children were involved in a most creative day as they found out that so many of our modern day Christmas traditions have their roots from Victorian times. Children made Victorian Christmas crackers with quilled cards and also made a corn angel. The fact that wealthy and poor children had a totally different Christmas 'experience' was also developed over the day.
The day was finished with Mr McCambley playing the organ and everyone singing 'Away in a Manger' on the landing of this beautiful Victorian house.
