Schooldays

This box contains many objects which were common to most people’s schooldays. The leather satchel, school bell, wooden pencil boxes, nibbed pens, inkwells, slate marker and an abacus are among the reminders of the years spent in a classroom. The resource file which accompanies the box offers suggestions on how to use the box and its objects.
