Today we had a visitor from the Royal British Legion.   Mr Anderson showed us his medals and talked about being a soldier. He fought in the Falklands War but talked about the second world war.

We learned that many parts of Scotland were bombed by the Germans.  They even bombed our local area. The Germans were trying to destroy ships and industry.  Lots of bombs fell in Stevenston, because the ICI factory was there.  A lot of them went into the sand on the beach and didn’t explode.

I love to learn about the history of my local area.  I find it really interesting and I’m going to visit the library to try to find out more.
