Yesterday Crew NJO had their first ever Student Led Crew Session hosted by Harvey. As we are all aware, Harvey has lots of knowledge around WW2 and more specifically the planes and tanks which were used and in Crew NJO we wanted a master class!
Harvey was able to talk us through the different types of tanks and planes by showing us photos of his diorama he has created in his own time at home which includes model soldiers, tanks, planes, houses and buildings along with grass and stones to really bring it to life!
We learnt that it takes a very long time to build and paint the models and you also have to use special glue in order to be able to paint on them once they are built. Harvey has tried to ensure that the colours he uses are as close to the real thing as possible but he did explain that you can make them any colour you like if you wished! Crew were also really interested to find out the different names of all of the tanks and reasons why they were called these names, which Harvey was able to explain at great depth.
Crew NJO would like to publicly appreciate Harvey for the effort he put into this session, taking photos, planning activities and even creating a video which you can see here:
In upcoming crew sessions other students have volunteered to deliver information about their interests and hobbies. We think this is a brilliant way to help to get to know each other more!
