The Florence Nightingale Museum celebrates the life and work of the world’s most famous nurse and Year 2 were delighted to spend the day visiting it on Thursday.

Located on the banks of the river Thames opposite the Houses of Parliament, the museum attracts visitors from all over the world who want to learn more about the Lady with the Lamp and her Victorian world.

During the course of the visit, pupils not only had the chance to meet Florence Nightingale herself but also examine her legacy, her influence on nursing today and the continuing relevance of her work.
