Somme and Arras trip photos

By jujupage1 -
I went on a year 9 history trip to the Somme and Arras. I visited loads of WW1 memorials and as a group we discussed wether or not they were the right way to remember them by. I also visited trenches. Some were left as they were and some were made today as they would be 100 years ago. We discussed which one was the best way to preserve the history of the trenches.  I also visited a mine. I forgot to take photos but we visited a quarry and a mine 20 metres underground that was used for a secret attack against the Germans. This was during the battle of Arras. All of these places however were so overwhelming to see but places I would definitely recommend going to.





























How should we remember the soldiers that died in WW1?

See you next time,

Bye

XOX, Juju

Life Update: World Challenge, Oral Exams, and Project 21 - Lifestyle Monday

By -
Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, Long time no see!  I hope you're having a great Valentine's Day, however you're spending it! Today I wanted to give you guys a little lite update because I think a lot of things have happened and I need to inform you guys all about it. The first rather big news is that my World Challenge trip to Northern Tanzania will not be in Northern Tanzania anymore, it will actually be in Morocco. This is because apparently, according to World Challenge (the trip organiser), Tanzania is a bit behind on the vaccine roll out and they don't believe that the situation will change in the space of 5 months so they decided to relocate us as a group to another country that is making more progress with regards to Covid. I knew that either full cancellation or relocation of the trip due to Covid was a possibility because I was informed of this at the start of the year. However, I thought that the world was kind of coming out of the thick...

Netflix series review: L'histoire d'Arsène Lupin - Lifestyle Monday

By -

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,  Recently, me, my mum, and my sister found this really good French series on Netflix called Lupin, which is based on the French 19th century novella, Arsène Lupin.  We decided to watch Lupin because we thought it would be a good way to practise our French. If you don't already know, part of my family is French. My mum was born on a French colony called Réunion which is a small island located off the coast of South Africa, in between Madagascar and Mauritius. My mum later moved to the South of France where she lived most of her life but she met my dad whilst she was studying at university in Liverpool. Like my older sister Alice, I was born in Paris which means that my passport is not British but in fact French. I moved to England when I was probably about a year old because my dad wanted to return home and work in this country instead. I try my best to speak French to my mum when I can but it is definitely a challenge beca...

My funny Halloween story - Lifestyle Monday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,  I hope you've all had a great Halloween! This weekend, my parents went to spend some time in Cromer whilst me and my sister Alice were minding the house for a couple of days. This was our first time home alone and although it seemed a bit daunting at first, we had a lot of fun eating loaded fries and watching movies. On Saturday night, we watched Strictly Come Dancing and it was Halloween week. Whilst we were watching one of the performances, Alice reminded me of one of my cringiest Halloween stories yet. She said, "Juliette, do you remember that time on Halloween when you carved a pumpkin and kept it for weeks? You also made a broomstick and attempted fly on it on the green like a witch. Do you remember?" I said, "Ahh yes, how could I ever forget?"😂💜 You see, I was 9 years old and my grandmother came over to stay. Me, my sister, and my grandmother were carving our pumpkins and I decided to carve out a cu...

My opinion on Doctor Who being a woman- News segment- Writing Wednesday

By -
Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, Growing up, I have always been watching Doctor Who. I would watch it after Strictly just to stay up a little later (lol). I would watch the Christmas specials etc. I think it's fair to say that I'm a bit of a fan. But what has upset me the most recently was the fact that they changed the Doctor to being a woman. For years on end, families and children have been watching a male actor as the Doctor and no one cared about it then. Subsequently, I am a little bit confused as to why people care so much now. Technically, the Doctor can change into anything he wants to be wether that is a woman or an animal. But the reason as to why he was neither of those things for so long was because it fit into the story better to be a male.  The production team of Doctor Who isn't trying to offend people they are just trying to do their job which is to make an entertaining program. I was so disappointed with the new episode that aired b...
