On Wednesday we went to Ferrymead to learn about the past to look back then and now and plan for our Future. We went to school and learnt about what it was like 100 years ago. In the school house with Mr Black, we learnt like how they used the strap and cane for punishment. When they got the strap it felt like they burnt their hand and their hand went red and white. Apparently the best cure was water because they sort of burned it and they slapped the children at tremendous speed. The cane wasn't as bad because it didn't hurt as much. I'm so glad we don't have school like they did 100 years ago.

Love the outfits! I think Mr Black was on to something when he said that children should be seen and not heard!
