Living History!

Governor Mrs Maggie Clift came to tell Year 6 about the Second World War.

She brought lots of artefacts from the war. This was her father's Naval Hat

And this is a list from the Air Raid Patrol Warden. It has a list of all the people in her street. Mrs Clift is listed in red because she was only two years old at the time and so the Warden would be expected to take special care to look for her if there was a bombing raid.

The 
children were fascinated. Here they are all looking back to the display on their wall, which Mrs Clift is talking about.

The display  referred to above.

The children were very lucky to have someone with real life experience to talk to them. We hope she comes again. She tells the stories so well!
