The Christmas Truce

Today we discussed the origins of WW1 and why so many countries became involved over the next four years. One event that the students found really interesting was 'The Christmas Truce.' 
We watched a couple of short videos to find out a little bit more about it.
The first clip is a Christmas message, based on The Christmas Truce, made in partnership with The Royal British Legion. It is inspired by real events from 100 years ago. Followed by a clip about the true story behind the event.
