J'ai eu un autre mois très occupé, parce que à mon lycée nous avons actuellement les examens, donc il a été difficile pour moi de travail sur Shared Histories. Mais j'ai encore fait beaucoup des petites choses vers mon projet.

The senior students involved in our Shared Histories project at school went down to the Hocken Archives for an afternoon to spend time researching and finding resources for our school project. There were some amazing sources available to look at. For example, I spent...

Columba College was lucky enough to have a visit from Pascale in our Assembly. 

Pascale gave a presentation to the school on the Shared Histories project, and gave us information on how we can get involved from even the smallest level (such as downloading a badge to show our support on social platforms). It was great to have her come in and enthuse some more people to get involved, and to give a better description of what the project is actually about to everyone at school.

On Friday, we had...

The senior students involved in our Shared Histories project at school went down to the Hocken Archives for the afternoon, to spend time researching and finding resources for our project.

There were some amazing sources available to look at. For example there were soldiers' diaries, letters, official histories, troop-ship magazines, amongst many other items. It was a brilliant way for everyone involved to be able to find some sources to use towards their area of interest for our final...
