At Tyne Cot we went in search of Evie's relative, P Spencer of the Lancashire 2nd Battalion, only to discover he served alongside Mrs Wells' relative on the Ypres Salient. Incredible. @Tranby_school #inspiringsubjectpassion

The trenches at Vimy Ridge demonstrate the churned earth of no-man's land and close proximity of the frontlines. @Tranby_school

Vimy Ridge Memorial in honour of the four Canadian Regiments who fought bitterly here in April 1917. Look for the symbolic "Breaking of the Sword". @Tranby_school #inspiringsubjectpassion

Theipval Memorial. We laid a wreath to remember Philip Richardson, volunteer to the Cheshire Regiment who died September 1917. He was the great, great grandfather of one of our pupils who visited for the first time today. @Tranby_school
