Year 6 have enjoyed meeting Diane this week; Diane shared her father’s story about escaping Hitler’s Nazi party on the Kindertransport during WW2. Year 6 then wrote diary extracts as if they had escaped, capturing character thoughts and feelings. Year 6 also spent time in our woodlands, baking using wartime recipes, building Anderson shelters and looking at WW2 artefacts. Year 6 are looking forward to writing survival guides with all their knowledge about WW2 – How to Survive the Blitz – informative, persuasive and instructive writing.
Thank you Otley Museum for providing these artefacts
