Nurse Sarah visits Year 2

In Year 2, we have been learning all about Florence Nightingale as part of our topic People of the Past. We have enjoyed finding out about what hospitals were like then and how they have changed.

This afternoon, we were very lucky because Nurse Sarah from Birmingham Children's Hospital can to answer all our questions about what it is like to be a nurse now. We found out about what she does and how Florence Nightingale's work has affected her job as a nurse.

Mrs Walker dressed up in the type of uniform Florence would have worn and then a few children from Year 2 were able to have a go at bandaging someone's arm. We all had part of a nurse's uniform as a souvenir to take away with us. Everyone had a fantastic time.
