Year 2 History Excursion | Beenleigh Historical Village & Museum
Today our Year 2 students visited the Beenleigh Historical Village and Museum – specifically The Village.
This excursion was organised to support the learning that has taken place in their Humanities and Social Sciences (HaSS) lessons – where currently they are comparing life in the past to the present. 💡🧐🤔
The students explored the village in small groups and were able to see what life was like in earlier days.
They also watched the following demonstrations:
- A blacksmith at work 🔨
- Old time crosscut pull sawing 🪚
- A printing workshop 📰
- The Loganholme One Teacher School – featuring good manners in days past, and the tools and methods used by one teacher conducting classes across different year levels. 🧑🏫
