Children love visiting the cemetery as part of their learning process and now they can carry out some WORLD WAR 1 studies there thanks to Kate MacDonell who has devised information sheets and ideas for a day (or half day) visit to the cemetery.

The cemetery is a beautiful place and safe place full of interest for children. The Heritage and Learning Centre has display boards, archive folders and computers that the children can use to help with their studies.

Click on the Education button at the top of the page then scroll down the page to find PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDIES IN RYDE CEMETERY and below that you will find all sorts of ideas and lesson plans including now World War 1 studies.
