Learning About History in Berlin...

I find it strange to think that there are kids in the UK that don’t study history at all in high school, so I was happy that Veronica chose history as one of her GCSE options. As part of her two-year history studies, she’s learning about the Rise of Hitler, the American Civil Rights Movement and the Cold War. At the beginning of Easter break, she went on a school trip to Berlin for four nights to visit WWII and Cold War sites. I was surprised to hear that she was one of the only kids that cried at the concentration camp and holocaust museum. Here she is in front of a remaining portion of the Berlin Wall and at the parliament building with her friends. For more photos and her stories, check out her blog.
