Today the Condors took a step back in time and visited the Charles Dickens Museum in Holborn. Arranged accurately in true Victorian style, groups took a tour around Mr Dickens’ family home and completed a writing workshop based around his literary works. Groups were challenged to critique descriptions of arguably Dickens’ finest character, Scrooge. Afterwards, groups read and delivered Dickens’ monologues and used traditional feather quills to write their own descriptive sentences. Here are some pictures from our day.
