The theme of the visit: WW1 as part of the 5th grade curriculum.
After a quick presentation of the La Martinerie base, located partly in the town of Déols, and a few words on the causes and consequences of the conflict, the students were divided into 3 rotating workshops:
- Objects found in the trenches (Found nowadays burried in the ground), words from the First World War, etc.
- Visit to the WW1 room, presentation of a trench model
- Visit to the room dedicated to the 90th RI (traditional Indre regiment), the evolution of uniforms, etc.
After a quick break for lunch, the students left around 2 p.m.
Other classes are expected in the coming weeks.
