P7 Anderson Shelters

After learning that over 3 million Anderson Shelters were built in the UK  by the end of WW2, we decided to create our own model versions. 

Working in pairs and trios, we planned our design together and started gathering materials that we might need from home. We looked at photographs and videos of Anderson Shelters from WW2 and used these for inspiration. We also researched the kit that was sent to families to build their own shelter in their garden. This included 6 curved corrugated panels and two end panels with a door. 

Today we started making our models. Watch out for our next blog post with our final creations…
