Dear All,
Their Past Your Future at the Imperial War Museum has just launched its last
schools competition, to win an all expenses trip to Germany
As part of the Their Past Your Future (TPYF) learning programme, a group of
24 students (aged 16-18 at time of travel) and 4 accompanying teachers will
travel alongside Imperial War Museum staff to Berlin, Germany. The visit will
explore the impact of the fall of the Berlin Wall from a German perspective, in
this the 20th anniversary year, and look also at the roots and history of the
Cold War. As part of their prize, the winning group will produce a short
documentary to be screened at the launch of TPYF’s Cold War-focussed online
exhibition in November 2009, and as part of the public programme at the
Imperial War Museum.
The visit will explore a range of historical and cultural themes, but precise
content will be shaped by the aims and needs of the winning school and its
pupils alongside the TPYF team. We therefore encourage entry from teachers
of any subject, or combination of subjects. Details and how to enter can be
found on our website at
http://www.theirpastyourfuture.org.uk/server/show/nav.23928
We'd really appreciate it if those of you who have contact with schools pass
details of this opportunity onto them. If you need more information, then
please get in touch off list. We're keen that as many schools have a chance
to enter this great competition.
Best wishes
Amy
