Year 8 experience life in the trenches with VR technology

On Monday, 17 July the Humanities department welcomed 'Time Travel Education' into school to allow Priory's Year 8 pupils to experience a visual workshop based on the First World War. 

Humanities teacher, Miss Makinson, said, "Each student was given a VR headset and transported into 1914, they experienced life and conditions in the trenches and what it would have been like to go over the top into no man's land." 

"Pupils said it was a really good experience, and they were glad to have the chance to experience it, it was like a real-life Horrible Histories; we would love to do it again!"
