Year 6 led us in a beautifully moving Remembrance Assembly this morning.
As part of our learning about our locality during World War, we headed just a few miles away to Hillingdon to explore an authentic bunker used in World War 2. After a workshop in the classroom, we headed below to explore before some photos with aircraft outside and a visit to the museum there.
