teacher), Pevensey and Westham C.E. Primary School
"We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Yesterday's World.
The children learned some historical facts through the benefit of a
child friendly environment and everyone was very pleasant and helpful to
us. Thank you for arranging things and we hope that all of you enjoy the
children's thank you letters."
Louise Duffy (Yr 3 teacher), Little
Common Primary School, East Sussex
"We all had a fantastic time at Yesterday's
World and have found it really useful as
an introduction to our topic on the
Victorian era.
The children really
enjoyed the exhibits and learnt a lot. We
found your teacher's pack useful and used
this to construct a map around the exhibits
and some key questions for children to think
about.
This enabled us to ensure children
focused mainly on the relevant period
(Victorian) for them.
A particular highlight of the visit was
the opportunity we had to visit the kitchen
and listen to one of your staff explain
about the Victorian artefacts.
All of
your staff were extremely helpful, for
example offering us the chance to leave
children's bags with you and bringing them
to us at lunchtime which helped alleviate
some of the organisational stress.
The staff
were also very patient with the children in
the shop."
