Florence Nightingale workshop

What makes a good nurse? Join Florence Nightingale in this hands-on workshop and journey back in time to explore the foundations of nursing. Children will learn all about Florence’s life, and experience what life might have been like in Scutari Hospital during the Crimean War.

What will my students do in this session?

The session will begin in our ‘Who Cares’ gallery as we take a closer look at healthcare roles and why they are important in both modern and Victorian times.
As Florence’s porter’s and nurses, students will travel to Scutari Hospital, Crimea, and take care of a wounded soldier.
