This week, year 1 visited Bradford Industrial Museum. As part of our topic ‘All Dressed Up,’ we wanted to learn how cloth is made from wool.
We got to complete the process ourselves – sorting the wool, carding, spinning and finally weaving.
We learnt about the life of children in the mills over 100 years ago and listened to the deafening sounds of the looms in action. Some of us had to put our hands over our ears as the noise was so loud!
We really enjoyed our trip. As well as the workshop, lunch and the coach journeys were particular highlights. We all had a fantastic day and learnt such a lot!
