KEY STAGE 2. HISTORICAL COSTUMED WORKSHOPS
Modern History
Britain Since 1948
We meet Ron Stick, an ageless time traveller, who takes us on a journey through the decades from 1930 to the present day and beyond. We see a different costume from each decade and are shown some artefacts and some slides, accompanied by music from each decade. For example; in the 1940's Ron is returning from war and shows us his gas mask, his ration book and clothing ration book and his National Registration Card and teaches us two wartime songs. In the 1950's he teaches us a rock and roll dance. In the 1960's he teaches us a song by the Beatles. Ron reminds us of some of the major changes over the past 70 years and gives us a glimpse into what the future may hold.
