Fast forward four years...

 ...and Year 6 have returned home from the countryside where they have been evacuated from the cities to get away from the bombing of the Blitz! I'm sure they have had a lovely time learning to live with their new families; some went to vicarages, some to farms and others to ordinary homes.

We were really lucky to meet a gentleman who was actually evacuated when he was 5 years old during the war. He told us all about his life and what it was like to grow up away from your family in the war. We also got to ride on a steam train through the countryside where some children would have been evacuated.

Thank you for being such amazing Shirley Warren ambassadors, Year 6 - wonderful behaviour and incredibly respectful. Take a look at what we got up to!

Year 6 are evacuated to the countryside!

We're really sad to be saying goodbye to Year 6 as they begin their evacuation from World War 2 - have a safe journey!
