Immersive WW1

Year 6 had a fantastic afternoon of immersive history with Mr Tilney, who came in to share his incredible history knowledge and WW1 artefacts. Year 6 were dressed as WW1 ‘Tommys’ in real uniforms, given rankings and orders to ‘go over the top’ considering the danger and tragedy of real life trench warfare. They also explored the advancements in gas masks to protect from chemical warfare and investigated weaponry, trench structures and tools as well as considering the emotional impact of war. What an incredible way to learn- thank you Mr Tilney for your expertise!
