Autumn 2 - World War II
This half term, we had a focus on World War II. Through this, we investigated life during this time period for soldiers, women and children.
During this topic, we created a range of art pieces such as: memory boxes, portraits of soldiers to share their emotions and Remembrance paintings.
To link with our local area, we visited The Royal Submarine Museum where we learned about life aboard a submarine during the war time and how women and children were effected back home.
The best part of the day was when a Chinook helicopter landed outside the learning building (where we were eating our lunch) as they were carrying out a practise run. Some of us had never seen a helicopter this close up before! It was amazing!
