We are working on a project with the Town Heritage Initiative and Britt Harcus. This piece of work will go on until Term Four and will culminate in the creation of a storybook.
We have decided to focus on World War 2 in Kirkwall and began our research at the Wireless Museum. The curator shared her knowledge about technology during that time and how it effected the people working and living in Orkney.
We have also been to the archives department at Kirkwall Library. Here we discovered more information about the War and individuals in the town. We made use of all the different materials the staff had looked out for us including maps, pictures, books and artefacts.
We will keep the blog up to date with the next part of the project.
