As part of learning about World War Two for our Social Studies topic, we were joined by William and Barbara’s grandson, Charlie today. The gents came along to share their knowledge on WWII in our local area.
William has published WWII themed two books on the subject. He brought along copies to share with the children. He patiently took questions from the class and shared his knowledge on a wide range of subjects such as German bombing of Belfast and Glasgow, Loch Ryan in the War and our area being used to train pilots from around the world.
The children had some personal interview time with William, finding out more information to fit with their chosen WWII projects.
Charlie directed us to Scarlet Visuals. The Youtube channel provides access to a number of WWII videos highlighting our local area’s role during WWII. We watched World War II History: On The Shores of Loch Ryan as William provided additional relevant commentary on the content too.
Thank you to William, Barbara and Charlie for support our project research today!
