Our trip to Lotherton Hall last week was absolutely spectacular. It was a wonderful sunny day when we arrived and the children had a workshop in the main manor house with Florence Nightingale. She told us about her life and then had us complete some activities, healing a teddy bear like a nurse and looking at Victorian objects from her lifetime. Then we went for our break and explored the grounds until we finally arrived at the animal house. We saw many tropical birds including flamingos and penguins!
