# "Surprise Me" History Project

  ![Image of "Surprise Me" History Project](https://files.schudio.com/westleigh-high/images/news/%5C'Surprise_me%5C'_History_Homework.PNG)  19 July 2016

Y7 student, Katie Morris made an outstanding piece of project work.  After discussing it with her granddad, together they came up with the idea for a WW1 model to depict soldiers fighting in the trenches.  Katie discussed this event with her granddad as they made the model together and learned a lot about what happened in WW1.  Katie’s History teacher, Mr Cunliffe thought that the final piece of work was outstanding and Katie was very pleased that she had also learned so much about this historical event.

Other students also made fantastic efforts with their projects and Mr Cunliffe was very proud of them all.  Well done!
