I agree it’s important our children know our history. My great great grandfather fought in the first world war and I wouldn’t want my children to forget him and the many others that served. My oldest daughter is 3 and this year she asked why I was wearing a badge it was a poppy and I explained that it was a poppy to remember those that died in the war. I have also worked with a reception and year one class as they were learning why we wear poppies and the same thing was said to them that was 9 years ago now and I would like to think those children now have a better understanding of our history.
