Year 6 WW1 Workshop

 On Tuesday the children were fortunate enough to attend a WW1 drama workshop led by Mrs Moore and Mrs Millward. The children were encouraged to show empathy towards the soldiers of WW1 by acting out scenes of 'going over the top' and experiences on No Man's Land. The children responded to stimulus including the poem  'Dulce et Decorum Est' by Wilfred Owen and a clip from the TV series Black Adder. We were so impressed with the children's maturity towards the touching topic. Their expressions and body language were outstanding!

This workshop led the children to write letters or diary entries from soldiers in the trenches of WW1.
