Hampshire's war and peace: their past your future project
Hampshire's war and peace: their past your future project - Project
Project overview
Primary pupils visit museums, set up as VE day parties, for a variety of workshops exploring themes of remembrance and commemoration. They learn from those who lived through the war as a stimulus for their own subsequent collection of reminiscences and creative commemoration of VE day. Four groups of secondary students, each accompanied by a veteran, visit four different countries to investigate the contrasting ways the end of the Second World War has been commemorated and how this has changed over time.
