We really enjoyed 5LM’s assembly on Friday 10^th March, which was about the Victorians. They taught us about some of the inventions that were developed by the Victorians and explained how big the Victorian Empire was; and that some of the countries that were in the Empire were not that keen on it! We also learned about the differences between poor children and their wealthier peers. Given the choice, they all decided that they would prefer not to be poor!   Life in the workhouse sounded pretty miserable.
