Celebrating Eleya's Historical Writing Achievement

We are delighted to share that one of our past pupils, Eleya Dikmova, has been commended in the Primary category of the Young Historian Project 2025 for her outstanding piece of historical writing.

Eleya entered the national competition last year with an extended piece of writing titled "How was Britain affected by World War Two?" In her thoughtful and engaging piece of writing, she explored key aspects of wartime Britain, including evacuation, rationing, and air raids. Her work demonstrated a good understanding of the period and was recognised by the judges for being clearly presented and thoughtfully written.

In their message to the school, the organisers said:

"The entry from Eleya Dikmova to the Primary category of the Young Historian Project 2025 was judged as Commended. Please pass on our congratulations to her for her well-crafted project. The standard of entries this year was particularly high, which is encouraging. Thank you for all that you do to promote this competition and we look forward to further entries from Galliard Primary School in future years!"

Eleya received a certificate to mark her achievement, and we are incredibly proud of her success. It is wonderful to see our pupils' hard work and enthusiasm for history being recognised on a national level.

Congratulations, Eleya!
