Is there a war on...?

Year 6 were evacuated from Southampton on Friday evening because of the bombing and they stayed in safety with the Oakwood family in Lordswood.

They made sure they had their gas masks and had a chance to talk to real veterans from World War II. During the evening, they also looked at some artefacts and clothing from the 1940s.

After going to bed, they were woken by the air raid siren and went down into the shelter, where they sung some songs to keep them cheerful.

And best of all, they learned how to dance!



We'll post some photos soon too!

You look like you had a brilliant time. I don't think I'd be able to jitterbug like that!
