We had lots of fun doing Ma Meek's washing in the Victorian cottage, using the wash board and wooden dolly and had a good look around her kitchen, living room and bedrooms, noticing some interesting objects along the way!
We also developed our understanding of the life of a charcoal burner in the Forest of Dean and why they cooked the wood into charcoal.
Learning about the life of a child miner was also very interesting and made us realise that school is not such hard work after all!
