We\u2019ve landed in… ewwww!<\/em>
\nDo you smell that?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the year 1849<\/strong>, and Greenhill is not smelling too fresh. No toilets. No sinks. Just\u2026 streets full of mud, mess, and really pongy puddles!<\/p>\n

That\u2019s because people didn\u2019t have clean water or places to wash, and a really nasty disease called cholera<\/strong> spread super fast. It made people very sick, and sadly, lots of them died. So many that the graveyards filled up \u2014 and they had to dig a big cholera pit<\/strong> behind me to bury people quickly.<\/p>\n

But guess what? While most people ran away scared, one hero ran TOWARDS the danger. His name was Father Charles Kavanagh<\/strong>, and he looked after sick people, gave them water, and even helped bury over 170 people when they died of cholera<\/strong> \u2014 by himself!<\/p>\n

He didn\u2019t wear a cape, but I think he\u2019s a real-life superhero<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcac STAMP IDEA<\/strong>: Draw a brave person in a cape, who cared so much for the people who were buried here.<\/p>\n

Now hop back into the time machine \u2014 the next stop is full of bells, smells, and some very old secrets![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_global_section id=”186″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
