WW2 trip to Palace Stables on 17/01/19.

17th Jan 2019

A great day was had by everyone learning about WW2. First we got to meet a GI soldier and learn drill. Some children were chosen for gun drill. Then we had to crack a Morse code. At our second station we learnt about gas masks and rationing during the war. We got to make our name tags and identity cards to show we weren’t spies. Finally we pretended we were evacuees from Belfast and we looked at an Anderson Shelter. Our air raid warden (Micah) brought us into a very dark bunker to keep us safe. Inside it we looked at the blackout curtains and sang ‘Run rabbit run’. We learnt a lot and had great fun at the same time. Thanks to Mrs Robertson for coming with us.
