Over the last two weeks we have been learning about WW2. We visited People’s Palace. Here we learned about what it was like to be evacuated during the war and have to live in an Anderson shelter. We also learned about rationing, and how only a small amount of food was available to feed different sizes of families.
we also learned about adult and children’s gas masks and what children had in their evacuation suitcase. Children were only allowed the essential necessities in their suitcase. Additionally, we learned about the role of woman in the war.
On Friday we visited Scotland street museum. Here we stepped back in time to 1884.This was a great experience as we witnessed what it was like to go to school during the Victorian era. The classroom and the teacher was very different to our teachers at St Alberts as the teacher was scary and extremely strict!!!!
