In our History lessons we have been learning all about Florence Nightingale. Florence was a nurse who cared for soldiers during the Crimean war – she changed the way patients were treated, improved conditions of the hospitals, and became the founder of modern nursing.
Class 6 were absolutely amazed to see Florence appear in our school! She must have travelled here from the past! She was a very kind lady and told us all about her life and her experiences as a nurse in the 1800s. The children asked her lots of brilliant questions and learnt lots of facts about her. They then wrote some fantastic recounts of her visit.
