6D go back in time... to World War 2!

This week, Year 6 have been fortunate enough to experience World War 2 evacuation by visiting the Watercress Line. Here, we had the opportunity to take a trip on a real 1930s steam train - just like the evacuees would have done to get to their new homes in the countryside. We also looked at some wartime clothes and packed a suitcase for a rich and a poor child. Finally, we listened to a gentleman who had actually been evacuated back in 1940 - he had some amazing stories for us. What a great day! It will really help us to get into role in order to write our diaries next week.
