Back in Time at Ferrymead

We had a wonderful introduction to Communication on our trip to Ferrymead. We traveled back in time to learn about how people communicated in the past. 

First, we got dressed up.







And then Robert taught us about circuits. The children loved turning on the lights and making the fan spin.











Next, we went to the post office where we got to write a letter. We stuck on a stamp, franked it and posted our letters.





Then we learned all about telephones from the past.









We made phone calls.









And we learned how people made phone calls using a switchboard.









Finally, we got to use other methods of communication from the past like slide projectors, typewriters, chalk and slates and quills and ink.
