All those guns in a school? Here in the states that would violate all kinds of "zero" tolerance policies. (Even though they are tiny and not real guns). And simulating shooting people… oh the horror! But seriously, keep up the good work and teach the younger generation there is more fun out there than xbox and playstation! |

Really?
I'm sure I've seen blogs where people run wargames clubs with pupils in schools in the States.
You're sure that's not just one of those "PC gone mad" scare stories?
:) Technically this wasn't in a school either – in a social club round the corner. But James did run it for a number of years at the school. The benefits of teaching history, numeracy and social skills clearly outweighing any perceived glorifying of war (real or imagined). |
