KS2 History e-learning (CD/DVD) : Life onboard HMS Britannia
Discover life onboard a unique Victorian school and follow a day in the life of Cadet Arbuthnot.

An interactive CD-ROM designed to give children the opportunity to explore for themselves an average school day for a 14 year old cadet in the old wooden hulk moored in the River Dart, HMS Britannia.

From early morning wake-up call and breakfast to a morning of studying navigation and seamanship; an afternoon on the boats followed by evening prep and back to bed in a hammock. See what a cadet would have eaten and try a Victorian receipe for yourself; or even what pranks a cadet would have got up to and how he would have been punished!
