Year 9 students spent the morning exploring the Imperial War Museum 🏛️👣, focusing on powerful exhibits about the wars of the 20th century ⚔️🕊️📖. In the afternoon 🌤️, they took part in an interactive workshop on life in Nazi Germany 🇩🇪📜, using real artefacts 🧳🪖 to create an exhibition about a person who lived during that time 🖼️👤.
This engaging experience ⭐ gave students valuable insight into how museum curators design exhibitions 🎨🖌️, while also deepening their understanding of the Holocaust 🤍🕯️.
