As part of our History work linked to WW2, Year 6 will be evacuees for the day! This will help the children to understand more fully what it would have been like to be a child during WW2. They will need to come to school dressed as evacuees ready for a war time experience. The children will be placed by our local Billeting Officer, will carry their gas mask box around all day and receive a war time snack. We can’t wait to see day in action. Goodbye children of 2024, please remember to use your new evacuee names! Each child will be given an identity for the day- which will help the children understand that not all evacuees had the same experience.
Boys could wear shorts, collared shirt, wool jumper / sweater vest and a flat cap.
Girls could wear long skirts, dresses or pinafores, wool cardigans or jumpers, blouses and a hat.
