Primary 7 thoroughly enjoyed their trip with Alan Hamilton yesterday, Alan is a friend of the school, a veteran and an expert in all things to do with WWII.<\/p>\n

He set up an activity for us to discover some different war graves, when we found the correct graves we laid some commemorative crosses for Remembrance Day. Alan also explained a bit about each soldier, their role in the war and how they lost their lives.<\/p>\n

Alan told us some information about a residential house right next to the school, if you look closely at the brickwork, you can see that there was an opening – this used to be the old tuck shop for the school. He also reminded us that the ‘big’ house at the end of the road used to be a Police Station.<\/p>\n

Alan was delighted with his gift from a pupil, the pupil made him a technical replica model of some war weapons. We want to say a huge thank you to Alan for his continued support of the school and wealth of knowledge. The pupils are looking forward to working with him again.<\/p>\n
