History Club

Since September, Miss Chander and I have been running a history club during Tuesday lunchtimes.  The focus for the first half term has been Remembrance, and each pupil chose an area from the two world wars that interested them and they spent the time researching their topic and then writing their articles.

 

It has been lovely seeing our pupils coming to the history club and choosing to do this in their free time.  To see them so engaged and enthusiastic as they researched their chosen area has been really wonderful.  All of them came to the club with ideas of what they wanted to write about, and have produced some very interesting and informative pieces of writing.

 

The students were extremely enthusiastic when they were shown a book that was published at the end of 1914, about the first few months of the Great War, as the First World War was then known. They were also fascinated to see a death penny, something that families received when a loved one was killed when serving for their country.  These pennies had the name of their family member engraved on it. 

 

History Club is every Tuesday lunchtime in H4
