What a fabulous day we have had at the cathedral today learning about the Blitz and life in Coventry in WW2! The children were a real credit to the school and behaved wonderfully. The weather held out too which was a bonus!
In the morning, we toured the old and new parts of the cathedral and learnt about how the original cathedral got flattened during the night of 14th November 1940. We climbed the 180 steps to the top of the tower; the view was well worth the climb! We then experienced a 1940s classroom and house and learnt about how people lived during the war.
After lunch, we made ration books, thought about what we would pack in our suitcases if we were evacuated and then created some wartime artwork using chalk. A great day had by all!
Here are 
some of the pictures from Miss Frearson’s group! More to follow soon!
