We are proud to present our superb Second World War activities in your school.

A typical day will introduce 2 characters from the War, although we can happily provide more or less as required. These could include:

• Billy Spicer - an Air Raid Warden
• Wing Commander Grant - a Mosquito pilot
• Edna Spall - a housewife and member of the W.V.S.

Sessions may involve more than one educator as per your requirements- so students benefit from a carousel of activities on a variety of topics- such as reasons behind the conflict, Hitler's rise to power, what was Blitzgrieg?, the life of a soldier, identifying friend and foe, medical treatments, life during the Blitz, rationing,  Air Raid procedures, technological advancements during the war, The Final Solution etc.
