To mark the centenary of the end of World War One\u00a0KS2 took part in a WW1 day to find out what life was like for soldiers fighting in the war. There were lots of different activities; we learnt about life in the trenches, how to treat a wounded soldier using our first aid skills and even took part in Basic Skills training!<\/p>\n

“I like the times in the hall – the man had lots of interesting facts to teach us and I have definitely learnt something today.” Izzie Y4<\/p>\n
“The first aid bit made me realise what people had to cope with\u00a0 in the trenches with limited things.” Annabelle Y4<\/p>\n
