Year 5/6 Visit Bomber Command

Our Year 5 and 6 students recently had the incredible opportunity to visit the Bomber Command Memorial in Lincolnshire, where they stepped back in time to learn about the bravery and sacrifices made during World War II. This is part of this term’s topic question, “How did World War II change our lives?”

From exploring the memorial and museum to hearing fascinating stories of the courageous airmen who served, this experience was a powerful and educational journey. The children learned about the crucial role of Bomber Command and the impact it had on the outcome of the war.

Thank you to the dedicated staff at the Bomber Command Memorial for sharing their knowledge and helping our students deepen their understanding of this significant chapter in history. We are so proud of the insightful questions and reflections from the children!

Shannon said, “I loved wearing the clothes and looking at the boots, they had a secret pocket in to carry a penknife!” Jack stated, “I really liked dressing as a pilot, the clothes were so heavy!” A truly unforgettable day of learning!
