On 10th November our Year 5 visit to Lodge Hill Cemetery using in soldiers footsteps to find out about World War One in Birmingham. Afterwards we asked a teacher and some of the children about the visit. Video and sound clip are brief edited responses:
Some images from the visit:
Finding names on the memorial wall
Welsh poppies as an act of remembrance
G. Thornlely gave a false name to enlist – was he under age for conscripting?
Finding the burial from references on the Memorial Walls
For more please see in soldiers footsteps.
