Year+11

Hi Year 11!
You should spend the first week typing up your controlled assessment. Please make sure you save it somewhere sensible, but also it would be a good idea to get hold of a USB that you could save it to as well.

[|'Hanging on the Old Barbed Wire'] "Hanging on the Old Barbed Wire" ( [|Roud] 9618) is a [|war song] of [|World War I]. The song sarcastically recounts the location of various army members, not to be found in the combat zone, and concludes by describing the location of the old battalion: // "hanging on the old barbed wire" //. This troop song was not popular with the officer class, who thought it bad for morale, though attempts to suppress it were unsuccessful. (Wikipedia)
