@BoltonSch are also repeating the act of remembrance we performed at 100 years for 110. We place a Tower of London poppy into the display for each fallen soldier on the 100th anniversary. There are now 3.

Here is part of the @GranadaReports report from the @ParaHistories debates that our #BSGDY12 @BoltonSch pupils took part in @LRGSLancaster. It really was a fantastic experience to engage in contested and controversial histories.
Well done to Ayaat in #BGGDY7 - the winner of this term’s castle building competition. Also, very well done to our other entries.
Today #BSGDY12 History & @BSchPolitics pupils travelled to @LRGSLancaster to take part in @ParaHistories debates on US Civil Rights. Oracy, critical thinking & debating skills all in plentiful supply.
Working with #BSGDGeography today on our #BSGDY7 “One Square Mile” display in Hesketh House - great to show off how our learning habits are being developed
Last Friday #BSGDY7 made another trip to @Skiptoncastle as well as the local museum and neighbouring Holy Trinity Church.
They shall now be presenting their ‘plans of attack’ in class.
A reminder that this Friday 28 March is the deadline for entries to our castle competition.
#BGGDY9 will be remembering Albert this week and the other OBs who died in the Great War
Today marks 110 years since the first OB was killed in action during WW1.
In 2014 #BoltonSch bought ceramic Tower of London Poppies for each of the OBs who gave their lives. Over the next 4 years we will commemorate them by adding the poppies to a display in the Riley Centre.

Poppies return to the Tower of London 🌺 To mark the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War, some of the 2014 ceramic poppies will feature in a new commemorative installation within the Tower's walls.
