Florence Nightingale

Saving Lives with Statistics

Take a journey around Europe as we follow Florence Nightingale through her life; from her birth in Italy, training as a nurse in Germany, saving thousands of soldiers in Russia to opening up a nursing school in London. Your students will recreate momentous scenes from her life so they too can experience the conditions and hurdles she had to endure and how she became a heroine and the founder of modern nursing.
