Life of WWII

We are continuing to immerse ourselves into the life of WWII.


On Monday, we had an expert talk from Mr Duker, who taught us all about the Battle of Britain.  


6CC then recreated an airfield battle scene in the hall, with squadrons of planes and fighter pilots soaring through the sky. The pilots wore headgear that restricted their view (as it would have been in a Spitfire!) and had to follow their squadron leader's exact movements in order to stay in formation. Various percussion instruments were also played in order to resemble the sounds that the pilots would have heard.




6JH have produced some excellent pieces of writing about being a fighter pilot and the rest of us are looking forward to completing ours over the next few days, so watch this space. 

We've written more diary entries as evacuees too...

Next week it's our trip to RAF Duxford!
