  • WWII Experience Day at Perlethorpe

    Published 22/11/23, by Roanna Swales

    UKS2 have had a fantastic day at Perlethorpe for a WWII Experience Day, as part of our Discover topic for this term: 'What if we lived through WWII?'

    We did an orienteering activity, through which we learnt about some of the planes used during the war; we had a look through the suitcases of some people who had lived during WWII, to find out about their lives; we experienced the billeting process for evacuees; and we also went into an Anderson Shelter - what a wonderful day!
