As you all know the NHS and the doctors and nurses are really important in helping us to fight the corona virus. So I thought it would be a good idea to find out about a famous nurse who was one of the first nurses to help to clean up hospitals and help poorly people get well. Watch the video and complete the activity.
Can you draw a picture of Florence Nightingale and tell me any facts you have found out about her?
