In line with their learning focused on World War 2, Year 6 had the amazing opportunity to take part in an interactive event that used feature film clips and films from the BFI National Archive, such as newsreels and government information films, that showed wartime life on the Home Front on subjects such as: the Blitz, ‘digging for victory’, rationing, and evacuation. Pupils were encouraged to discuss the challenges faced during this time and took part in drama activities around the individual experience of being a wartime evacuee.
