What it's like in a Victorian Aged school in 1878

Today we went into the old Victorian Aged school and did a 45 minute school lesson about waht it was like to be a student in the Victorian schools.

They had a cane to smack bad kids with and a back straightener for bad posture. You had to sit up straight and not talk or even look sideways or you would get a smack.

This is the class and teacher

Me in the class

The back straightener being used for a 'boy' that had bad posture. 

This is the dunce hat for the dumb people. We all pointed at the boy and said dummy at him.

I am glad schools have changed from this.
