Education

The Woodbury Park Victorian Cemetery serves as a valuable educational tool for primary school children.


We welcome school visits and offer 2-hour tours led by guides with extensive knowledge, fostering interdisciplinary learning.
•    Historical Learning: The cemetery provides a tangible connection to the past, allowing children to learn about the Victorian era, including societal norms, customs, and significant historical events.
•    Local History: Exploring our local Victorian cemetery helps children understand our community's history and the people who lived here, fostering a sense of place and continuity.
•    Genealogy and Research Skills: Investigating the lives of those buried in the cemetery introduces children to genealogical research and the use of historical records, enhancing their research and critical thinking skills.
•    Respect and Empathy: Visiting a cemetery encourages respect for those who have passed and empathy for their stories, helping children develop emotional intelligence and a deeper understanding of life and death.

 

A visit to the Woodbury Park Victorian Cemetery can make history and learning more engaging and meaningful for your primary school children, enriching their educational experience.
