Victorian Work Loan Box

This Victorian Work Loan Box features artefacts that were used by Victorian families in their working lives down the pit. Learn about the harsh jobs that women, men, and children did to put bread on the table and how working as a team was so important to earn a living.

“The kids all loved looking at all the artefacts. They loved being able to see them in real life and feel them. They were very surprised by how heavy the lamp was. The children were very engaged and they found it so interesting to talk about. My class were discussing how it would feel to wear all the equipment”. – Year 3 Teacher
