We had a fantastic visit to Beaumanor today and it really enriched our knowledge and understanding of life in Britain during WW2. We went as evacuees and had the opportunity to experience life during the war in different ways. We learnt about how the war effort was helped through deciphering radio messages, what rationing would have felt like and experienced an air raid in a shelter underground. We all realised how hard life must have been during these times in so many ways.
