Year 5 Visit to the Holocaust Centre

Date: 27th Jul 2020 @ 3:55pm

This week, the children of year 5 visited the Holocaust Centre in Laxton. The children had an exciting day out discovering more for the World War 2 topic.

The children learned a lot about the journey many Jewish people and children went through in World War 2, responding appropriately to what can be a very difficult subject.

The children had a busy day and where very tired on their return. However it seemed the day was not done with some of us yet. While Mrs. Ingram’s class returned on their coach without issue. Mr. Cartwright’s class had an adventure when their bus broke down.

However, the children dealt with this in their stride, and after finding a near safe field, had an impromptu ‘picnic’ and played games (though if asked, many of the children have a found suitably more… heroic retelling of this event).

Eventually though, all the children returned safely to school having a lot to think about from the day and how we can treat others in the world.
