Using the schoolroom at Hartlebury children while have the opportunity to learn about the life of a Wartime evacuee. Our WVS leader or ARP warden will talk about evacuation and children’s experiences. All Children can arrive suitably attired with their gas mask boxes.
Once the children have found out about life during the Second World War they will be able to take part in a series of hands-on activities including packing an evacuee’s suitcase, sending Morse code messages, playing with wartime toys and shopping with WW2 coins. These activities give the children an opportunity to learn and develop new skills.
