Victorian Christmas

The children in Emperors today went to the Beaulieu National Motor Museum and spent the day in the Palace House. We had a fantastic time in the morning, learning about etiquette in Victorian times and listening to Christmas stories while drinking hot chocolate and eating biscuits. At lunch we had some warm tomato and carrot soup which was perfect for a cold winter's day and a delicious chocolate yule log. During the afternoon we gathered around the piano and sung some traditional Christmas carols, played some musical instruments and even enjoyed watching the teachers and mums dancing!! We had a wonderful day. Thank you to everyone that came with us and the children were beautifully behaved. Take a look at the photographs and videos on our class page.
