Our topic for the Autumn term is World War I and to expand our learning we have partnered with HMDT Music. This year celebrates 20 years of their special World War I program: Trench Brothers. To commemorate the one hundred year anniversary of World War I, we’re participating in a series of workshops that will lead to an end performance on December 1st and 2nd.
As part of this project, on the 14th and 15th of September, Year 6 hosted the National Army Museum for an interactive World War I artefacts workshop to begin our learning about the war. We were able to handle a range of real-life wartime objects such as: gas masks, shells, bullets, helmets, uniforms and much more.
