Materials included lollipop sticks, tea bags, cakes, polystyrene and foil. This led perfectly into Mr Plant’s WW2 humanities lessons, where the children had to grapple with moral dilemmas. They were asked to decide if they believe it is right to risk hurting more civilians through bombings if it meant an earlier end to the war.  

After considering the fear that people in those times would have had to live under, Form 7 then delivered an assembly to the rest of the school around the topic of facing your fears. The children gathered their own information, prepared their own slides and read their information well to the whole school. Who knew that anatidaephobia was the fear of a duck watching you or that devwahrphobia was the fear of completing homework?
