Neville Chamberlain's Speech

Hello, I found Neville Chamberlain's FULL SPEECH!!! Here it is... 

I am speaking to you from the Cabinet Room at 10 Downing Street.

This morning the British Ambassador in Berlin handed the German Government a final note stating that, unless we hear from them by 11 o'clock that they were prepared at once to withdraw their troops from Poland, a state of war would exist between us. I have to tell you now that no such undertaking has been received, and that consequently this country is at war with Germany. 

 

You can imagine what a bitter blow it is to me that all my long struggle to win peace has failed. Yet I cannot believe that there is anything more or anything different that I could have done and that would have been more successful.

Up to the very last it would have been quite possible to have arranged a peaceful and honourable settlement between Germany and Poland, but Hitler would not have it. He had evidently made up his mind to attack Poland, whatever happened, and although he now says he put forward reasonable proposals which were rejected by the Poles, that is not a true statement. 

The proposals were never shown to the Poles, nor to us, and though they were announced in a German broadcast on Thursday night, Hitler did not wait to hear comments on them but ordered his troops to cross the Polish frontier the next morning. 

His action shows convincingly that there is no chance of expecting that this man will ever give up his practice of using force to gain his will. He can only be stopped by force. 

We and France are today, in fulfilment of our obligations, going to the aid of Poland, who is so bravely resisting this wicked and unprovoked attack upon her people. We have a clear conscience - we have done all that any country could do to establish peace. 

The situation in which no word given by Germany's ruler could be trusted, and no people or country could feel itself safe, has become intolerable. And now that we have resolved to finish it I know that you will play your part with calmness and courage. 

At such a moment as this the assurances of support which we have received from the empire are a source of profound encouragement to us. 

When I have finished speaking, certain detailed announcements will be made on behalf of the government. Give these your closest attention. The government have made plans under which it will be possible to carry on work of the nation in the days of stress and strain that may be ahead... 

Now may God bless you all. May He defend the right. For it is evil things that we shall be fighting against - brute force, bad faith, injustice, oppression and persecution - and against them I am certain that right will prevail.

Neat, eh! jack

Fantastic First Week Back!

P6/7 have had a very productive week back at school. We have started our new topic, World War Two & the Home Front, chosen our new Literacy Circle novels, reflected on our achievements in term 2, thought about our targets for the new term ahead and met our new buddies from P1/2! Yep, term 3 is going to be another busy and exciting term for us all!

This term in P.E. we are be going to getting some specialist handball sessions before the Handball Festival in February.
We are finishing off our 'Keeping Myself Safe' topic in Health and Well Being- well done to you all who have contributed to some fantastic (and very grown up!) discussions during this programme of work. I look forward to your responsible attitudes towards our next Health topic- Alcohol Education.
In Literacy we are going to be looking at how we can use VCOP to improve our creative & formal writing and also filling in  WW2 diaries every week!
We are all working extremely hard in maths- all moving up a level and textbook. We are currently finishing off Division and moving onto Fractions, Decimals and Percentages.

I hope you are looking forward to the challenges and fun which lay ahead in term 3- keep up the hard work P6/7!

Almost time for 'Welcome Back P6/7'

I hope you have all had super Christmas holidays and that you are rested and ready to get back to school.
Term 3 is already set to be very busy and I already have lots of dates for your diaries on Monday 11th January (when we all come back to school). Please make sure you have your diaries with you on the first day back so that you can take a note of all our important events, dates, trips and of course homework.
I look forward to seeing you all on Monday!
