The children started the day by walking along the old, Victorian Railway line and finding out about the difficulties in constructing it. After lunch, they had a great time exploring the galleries, investigating making clean water, having a go at writing with ink pens and writing on slate boards. This enrichment activity links to the children's topic of study in History, this half-term.
