Primary 5 and Mrs Campbell were delighted to welcome Alan Hamilton into school on Thursday afternoon. Alan has previously been a regular visitor to our school, working with P6s and P7s on their World War IDL contexts. He is a mine of information about WW1, WW2 and everything in between!<\/p>\n

Alan came to speak to Primary 5 about Remembrance and gave us a real insight into the life of a soldier, from rations and trench foot to horse dung and ‘sweet pea mixture’ (ask your kids!). He brought along his own medals and some interesting artefacts to show us and also very kindly left us copies of his own sketches which he made whilst serving in Iraq.<\/p>\n

The pupils were highly engaged in this session and understandably had many questions which Alan did his best to answer!<\/p>\n
