We did make it back for her field trip though. What an awesome field trip! We travelled back in time and took on the role as World War II child evacuees.
Our group
Walking to the train. We rode an actual steam train to the field trip!
We had rations for lunch. 2 slices of bread, 2 slices of SPAM, a sliver of butter, a spoonful of cheese and then as much veg as we wanted (carrots, onion, cabbage, beets). Needless to say, we were all quite hungry by the end of the day!
We learned how to identify airplanes
They got to take on some of the tasks that the child evacuees would have done.
Quite a unique and rare experience.
The following week I was able to go on a field trip with Avery to Audley End house and gardens. Where we dressed up and pretended to travel back in time to the Victorian Era and took on the jobs as the maids and servants.
