Steven's War Medals and war stories!

Last Thursday Steven (Makenzie's Dad) came to school and talked to all the Year 4 chidlren about the time he spent in the Army and he showed off some very special medals of his own and also some of his grandfather's (Makenzie's great grandfather).
Steven spoke to us about what life was like in wartimes - back in the world wars and also in more recent times when he served for the Army.Steven also brought along a statue of a soldier that looks a bit like he did when he was in Bosnia.He even brought along his army hat.  We learned that a soldier wears their own medals on the left hand side and if you are wearing someone else's medals you wear them on the right. Thanks so much for coming in and sharing your special medals and knowledge with us.
