The A1 Audio Tour has been introduced by Islington Council and it provides commentary on Islington’s A1 road from Archway to Goswell Road. The files can be downloaded for free here and the ‘tour’ provides information on historic buildings, interesting facts and stories from local residents.
Today the internet is part of everyday life for children. Children are familiar with the online world and use tools such as Facebook and MySpace to communicate with friends. The Imperial War Museum has launched a new section on their website - ‘The Battle of the Somme’ which through personal stories and by posting original documents online has made the history of the Battle of the Somme very accessible to children.
