HISTORY HISTORY HISTORY - Experiencing working life underground.

Today Year 5 sampled life underground, eight team leaders prepared an assault course scenario and led their team through a maze of activities under blindfold. The aim was to sample the difficulties that miners faced working underground in cramped spaces. The children imagined that they were wading through rats, with dirty water to their elbows. They had a great time during the lesson and came out with a real insight into the conditions underground. We all look forward to Friday when we can sample it further at Big Pit (Parents please see letter below).
