Learning about Spike Milligan

Year 3 have started learning about the famous poet Spike Milligan.  We researched lots of facts about him, his TV & radio shows and listened to four of his most absurd poems! ‘On the Ning Nang Nong’ and ‘Land of the Bumbley Boo’ seemed to be very popular across the two classes.  We discovered that he was born in Poona, India and was the son of an Irish captain.   Lots of interesting discussions were held about the invention of television and why the radio was such a popular form of entertainment in the past.
