This week, Year 5 stepped back in time to the First World War. Sergeant Parsons visited to train new recruits and to prepare them for life in the trenches. Using Virtual reality headsets, they experienced first hand the dreadful conditions in the trenches as well as going over the top as the whistle was blown.
Back in the classroom, they became history detectives as they investigated artefacts from World War One.
