Christchurch Mansion Victorian Workshops

Children from the whole of Key Stage 2 went to Christchurch Mansion in Ipswich over a week to take part in a series of Victorian workshops.

Just like in Downton Abbey - we got to try out 'upstairs' and 'downstairs' activities.

Whilst downstairs we made butter and did the laundry.


Upstairs involved something called deportment - learning how to walk, sit and dress like a gentleman or lady.
