On Thursday, 17th October, the History Department welcomed local historian Terry Whenham to talk to Year 9 History students.
Terry grew up in the local area and has conducted extensive research around the First World War. The students were fortunate to receive a fully interactive talk from Terry to discuss some of his research, including highlighting the stories of soldiers William McFadzean and Horace Iles.
Terry brought various artefacts and equipment to show the students which helped give an insight into the weapons used and the challenges they faced. All Year 9 students found the talk enjoyable and informative.
