KS1
Rowan and Maple class had a great day at the Sea City Museum in Southampton today. The children explored a range of resources that would have been on board the Titanic including ceramic hot water bottles, hair curlers, oil bags that were on the lifeboats and many other items. They also discussed who they would save if they were in charge of the lifeboats, matched rooms to where they were on board the ship, used their sense of smell to work out some smells that may have been present in different areas of the ship (including fire and smelly feet for the gymnasium!) We had a guided tour of some of the museum and then spent some of the afternoon doing our own quizzes. The children were excellent and learnt a lot, a great day!
