We are so happy to welcome back Kathryn Purchase into our classroom for another fab History input for the pupils! Pupils have been working hard studying WW1 ad WW2 this term, we had made a good bit of headway through the topic but nothing compares to Kathryn’s expert knowledge which provides an insight that we cannot get anywhere else!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We learned about how the War started and how this was linked to other events across the world like The Great Depression. We understood that The Treaty of Versailles, an outcome of the first World War, was one of the key factors in what started WW2. We looked at how this led to Hitler’s rise to power and the events that followed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The morning talk was very informative – so much information that the pupils seemed to soak up like a sponge! Then the fun really began for their eager eyes, they got to get hands on with all that fantastic props that Kathryn brings along with her – with WW2 being her most heavily stocked history topic!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We finished off the session with a Q&A – as per expected, the pupils had lots and lots of questions to fire at Kathryn and they got their answer every time!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks for joining us today Kathryn, always a pleasure and until next time… \ud83d\ude42 Here are\u00a0 some photos below of today’s fun!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
