Year 9 and 10 – ‘Fighting the Kaiser’

Year 9 and 10 – ‘Fighting the Kaiser’

As part of their study of World War 1 and World War 2 in Humanities and Social Sciences, the Year 9 and 10 students watched plays titled ‘Fighting the Kaiser’ and ‘Fighting for it’, comprised of true stories from diary entries from a World War 1 correspondent named Charles Bean and from the Australian War Memorial collection. Absolutely phenomenal and performed by one actor only, this play built on the learning and research in the classroom. Students commented it was most definitely a highlight of the History unit.
