The Star helps to bring World War One to life in schools
Primary school pupils will relive the last 100 days of the war through the eyes of an imaginary family as part of the six-week project.
Armistice 100 aims to transport children back in time, give deeper meaning to the events and relate them directly to people, places and experiences of that time.

The Star has teamed up with The News Foundation as part of the project to create a package of materials that will bring 1918 to life through the pages of the local newspaper.
Schools will receive a project pack with more than 30 lessons to be used in the weeks leading up to Armistice Day.
In addition, each student will receive their own copy The Star once a week for the six weeks of the project.
