P6/7 - Radio Technology use on Titanic

24th Sep 2017

John, Michelle and JJ McPeake very kindly brought in their radio equipment to teach P6/7 about the radio technology used on the Titanic - our current World Around Us topic.

Pupils were able to closely observe a radio similar to the one used on the ship alongside some modern radio equipment. 

All pupils had the opportunity to practice using morse code to sound out the, 'SOS' signal which was used aboard the Titanic when disaster struck. 

This information session was greatly enjoyed by myself and P6/7 and has been a valuable contribution to developing our knowledge and understanding of the use of radio and communication on the Titanic. A big thank you to John, Michelle and JJ for this fantastic session!
