Video Compilation of WW2 Project Work in Sixth Class…

What incredible work from each and every pupil in Sixth Class! Well done to Ms Marion for leading her class on a journey of discovery and learning. They explored the socio-economic and political causes and effects of WW2. These wonderful projects looked at Blitzkriegs, the Battle for Britain and accompanying blackouts, the treatment of Jews and the cruelty of concentration camps, the effect on the lives of children and women, food rationing, SS, Hitler, Chamberlain and Churchill, famous battles, offensives and surrenders, allied and axis powers, Irish neutrality and much more. History is such an important subject and these projects demonstrate the level of work and research which pupils engaged with, in class and at home. The illustrations, arrangement and presentation of these projects are superb, you would agree. Each child was given the time to discuss and summarise their individual projects orally in front of their classmates. Their ‘London Blitz’ artwork, using oil and dry pastels , depicting the air raids or ‘lockdowns’ at night is absolutely superb. Well done, everyone! This wonderful work is displayed on noticeboards along our corridors which you can see in the video below. I hope it compensates in some way, for the restrictions which deny parents the chance to walk around and linger during this 2020 challenge.
