Cecilia (Victorian Britain, Florence Nightingale) 

What interested the children? 

• 'the museum shop, hearing about the war, the tea set laid out by Cecilia, Cecilia's dress, the slit in her dress and her keys'

• 'the clothes she ware' (wore)

• 'when we had that little shop'

• 'what clothes!'

• 'when she dies because we were all sad'

Reasons they gave to persuade teachers to bring back the visitor:

• 'because she taught us a lot'

• 'to learn more about Florence Nightingale'

• 'it is fun'

• 'she was the lady with the lamp'
