Lessons and Activities
Apart from the daily English and Maths work, Mrs. Willet (and Mrs. Spicer) provided a range of other lessons and activities. In the classroom there were toys such as the sand pit (a favourite with the boys) a wooden truck, cotton reels, building blocks, beads, puzzles, a cot, a pram and a dolly called Rosebud. |

Children could also do drawing, knitting and clay modeling.
The school had a Maypole and the children enjoyed country dancing. P.E. was taken on King George's field (behind the school). |
