Dosbarth Llew Victorian day!

Mr Pain paid a visit to the school this morning and transported the children back in time to the 1890's! Following the fingernail inspections the children had drill, times tables and alphabet work using slates and chalk. Everyone sang All Things Bright and Beautiful and then went outside to play Victorian games such as cup and ball, hopscotch and skipping. An observational drawing lesson was interrupted by naughty pupils having the cane, wearing the Dunce's cap or backboard (to help them sit up straight). The Welsh language was banned with children encouraged to 'grass' on each other as the Welsh Not was passed around!
Many thanks to the parents and of course children for making the day such a success. Mr Brown will be back tomorrow as Mr Pain has returned to the Tardis...
