Paul Riding and our very own Jay (P6) spent the afternoon with us, sharing Paul’s amazing collection of World War 1 antiques. We got to handle actual WW1 objects! There were helmets from the Triple Entente and the Triple Alliance, multiple medals, compasses, bullets, postcards, cigarette cases and a lot more. Boys and girls, can you answer these questions? Two points per correct answer. Answer by clicking on the title of this post and writing in the comment box.

1. What was a Princess Mary tin?
2. What is ‘trench art’ and what example did we handle today?
3. Should you paint or polish WW1 antiques?

5. What did Logan bring for us to see and why was it given?

A huge thank you to Paul, Jay and Logan for sharing their precious items today.
