Month: March 2023

We tried on some stuff from the museum (Jackets,Clothes,Hats,Gas masks…) . There were gift cards and stamps you could keep the card you got, ( one card that was smelly and i liked it some people didn’t tho..)
Then we watched a film about WW2 and peoples lives,
Then we did learned about what the children did when they had to evacuate.
They had to go without their Ma And Pa (They felt sad tho.)
Some kids were lucky enough to get their Ma with them tho.
We also found a nuclear launch pad replica (It was pretty cool ngl)
We also got to smell WW2 soap (It smelt so good…)
The trenches were Daniels favourite bit.
I also poked my hand into this hole a lot and found a rat (It was fake tho lol.)

-Airen and Daniel!

Hello, Payton and Ori are doing a blog together today. and do you know what it is…

We went to the Devil’s Porridge in Eastriggs today. We learned  all about the first and second world war. We saw evacuees outfits and possessions, gas masks, air raid wardens and home rationings.

In the downstairs, we learned about the big ammunitions factory and how it affected the workers health. We also saw what the nurses uniforms would look like and what their living conditions were. We saw and learned about the trenches as well. My favourite part was learning about the nurses. Payton’s favourite was trying the gas masks on and the train that was outside. We also saw an Anderson’s air raid shelter.

That is all from us today

Bye!

   

Today the P6/7 class went on a trip to the Devils Porridge Museum. My favourite part was the touch screens. They were all about making the bomb mixture? and About people during the 2 world war. The whole class was split into two groups. One group watched short films about the war. Meanwhile the others Explored the museum.  We also got scratch and sniff cards they smelt DISGUSTING. We also got to see an Anderson shelter. Everybody squeezed in to fit so we could take a photo. We went to the gift shop after. I got a notebook.
