On Wednesday 5 Nov at 19.00 in room 13 Dave Barter will talk to our students about Guy Fawkes and Bonfire Night.
We have the honour and the privilege of having with us here today an
accomplished history writer. His name is Dave Barter. He is a frequent contributor
to the local English newspaper, The Daily Bulletin. One of his latest
contributions has been his beautifully-written travelogue series of articles about
his travels in Peru. In these articles not only did he talk about the
breathtaking landscape he witnessed while there, but he also wrote extensively
about how people live there, many of whom actually struggle to make ends meet
living in shanty towns made of cardboard boxes.
But anyway,
he is here with us today to talk about today's celebration.
What date
is it today?
What do
English people celebrate today?
What did
Guy Fawkes plan to do? Was he successful?
What do English
people do on Guy Fawkes night?
