Weald Community Primary School, Kent
Weald Community Primary School contacted War Memorials Trust in April 2014 in response to a newsletter about the charity’s Learning Volunteers visiting schools in Kent. The school was keen to commemorate the centenary of the start of the First World War and arranged for two Learning Volunteers to visit in the summer term to work with classes across the whole school.
Scholarship Research Project, Surrey
The History department and the Scholarship class undertook a 2 year research project to discover who the names were on the School war memorial to those who fell in the Great War.
Lenham Primary School, Kent
Staff at Lenham Primary School contacted War Memorials Trust early on in the Trust’s project to train Learning Volunteers in Kent, and was visited by one of the charity’s local Learning Volunteers shortly before Remembrance Day 2014.
Bethersden Primary School, Kent
As part of Bethersden Primary School’s work to commemorate the start of the centenary of the First World War, staff were keen for pupils to have an understanding of the importance of war memorials and what they represent. They therefore contacted War Memorials Trust to book a visit to the school. The Trust’s Learning Volunteers had just finished training and so were able to carry out a visit to the school in the summer term 2014.
