When did the children go home after work in the Victorian workhouse?

In Victorian workhouses, children typically did not go home after work, as they lived in the institution full-time. They were often separated from their families and placed in the workhouse for various reasons, including poverty or orphanhood. The workhouses operated as a means of providing food and shelter, but the conditions were harsh, and children were required to perform labor alongside adults. As such, their lives were largely confined within the workhouse system.
