Lasswade WW1 Battlefields Trip100 years ago, thousands of Scots volunteered to join the army and
fight in the First World War.
They were given a small payment on joining…a gesture for their bravery and a bond from their country. This was called the ‘Kings
Shilling’.
We are looking for volunteers to join our own Battlefields Experience in September 2016.
Pick up a letter from any History teacher and you will receive your very own ‘Kings Shilling’

If there are other pupils with passes waiting to use the lift then friends MUST take the stairs•Any friend going with you in the lift MUST get off at the same floor as you!•Please try to be considerate to other lift users, if you feel they are more in need of using the lift, then allow them to go first•All Lift users will have to be patient, there will be queues until the other lift is repaired (Patience is a good skill to learn!!)
