Recent outings for Primary Victorian Box - Totnes Fashion and Textiles Museum

In the last  month our Victorian Box has visited two primary schools - one as far away as Newport, Wales and more locally Dartmouth Primary School.

About  120 year 2 and 5 pupils have watched as their teacher has been dressed from inner garments to outer garments as a Victorian lady.  Some of the pupils also had the chance to dress as Victorian girls and boys.

The boys and girls were amazed at how many layers a Victorian lady wore and asked many questions.
