The group met again at Bexleyheath library. The focus was on the Zeppelin airship which dominated the skyline during the early years of the Great War.
Peter spoke about these airships and showed
an interesting documentary to the
group about them.
From this the children, in groups, came up with some questions to ask the Professor who they would soon be interviewing. The questions each group had thought of were heard and then a list of ones which would be used were compiled.
Peter also spoke about the early life of Wilfred Salmon in Australia, giving further background information to his story.

Interview techniques were learnt and practiced to prepare for the interview with Giles Camplin. This also helped the children to prepare for their interview later on in the week with historian Ian Castle.
Questions and interviewers prepared, Giles Camplin arrived and was interviewed about the threat of the Zeppelin to London.
