X26 Skipper- XP Needs You!

X26 Skipper have got off to a flying start in Humanities, whilst learning about WW1 through their expedition ‘Over The Top!’. So far, they have studied a range of texts, including GCSE-level war poetry and the play White Poppies. Why not ask them what white poppies represent? They have even had the opportunity to see a fascinating collection of WW1 artefacts and have their questions answered by an expert.

Students have looked at which qualities were needed to become a soldiers and are now drafting a letter of application to join the Yorkshire Light Infantry, that was based here in Doncaster. For Extended Study, they have been writing their first draft through the eyes of a potential soldier in WW1, which we will critique and redraft to make it amazing!

Well done to Skipper for all your hard work so far. It has been a pleasure getting to know you and I predict great things for you all.
