Off to the Seaside

The session takes place in the tramshed just around the corner from the Museum.

The children will sit in the tram and meet a character from about 1900, who will sing songs and tell them about a day out to the seaside, how they got there with an emphasis on the Mumbles Train, the first passenger railway in the world.

There will also be a chance to dress up in late Victorian/Edwardian summer costume.

Progression level 1

Target Age – Reception/Yr 1

Length of Session – 1 Hour

In ‘Swansea – A photographer’s Dream’ Colin Riddle’s pictures of Swansea in the 1960s represent images of a lost age.

 

Though much of what he photographed still exists for the keen historian to seek out, much has also disappeared.
