Setting

10th October 1940. During the morning, the classroom recreation is set in a village school soon after the beginning of the heaviest bombing raid over London.

Schoolroom

History Off the Page will bring all the materials needed to recreate a 1940s classroom in the hall.  The activities and role-play of the morning seek to explore the dramatic changes in children's lives.

Afternoon Session

The afternoon session develops the pupils' historical investigative skills through artefact study and the use of an Anderson shelter.

Details of this and further information about the day are included in a booklet which is sent out prior to a booking. All the History Off the Page providers are experienced teachers and storytellers who enjoy working with large groups of children. Generally there will be a story told during the day.
