Hampton Cove Elementary School

Fifth graders stepped back in time and brought history to life during the exciting Colonial Trades Day! After weeks of researching colonial-era jobs and the tools used long ago, students proudly became experts in their chosen trades. Dressed in period-appropriate clothing, they transformed classrooms into bustling colonial workplaces. Guests explored trades such as weaving, blacksmithing, apothecaries, millinery, and more while learning directly from the students. Colonial Trades Day was a lively celebration of learning, creativity, and hands-on history.
