We are all part of history, the way we live now and into tomorrow will be history for the generations to come. It is important for the children of today to understand how we have arrived at the way the world is around them, and to understand that society is in constant change. At Brading we have a comprehensive archive resource of its local history, which is of great relevance to the school children living in the town.
As part of our Lottery Fund grant we have been pleased to compile some Education Packs as a resource for teachers. In creating these Packs we acknowledge the assistance of Brading Primary School and Estelle Baker, Heritage Education Officer for Isle of Wight Heritage Service.
