Local History Study - The Dick Kerr Ladies

Lesson: History

Class: Year 5 Year: 2021 - 2022

We have loved learning about the Dick Kerr Ladies and were so pleased to meet Gail Newsham -  the author of "In a League of their Own" and "Football's Forgotten Legends".

We learnt so much and were amazed by the story of this football team. Have a look at the photos to see some of the work we did. We even found out that two of the children in our class had relatives who played for the team.

We were greatly inspired by Gail's story of the ladies and indeed by Gail herself.
