Almost every family within our class will have been affected by the Second World War in some shape or form. If you would like to share your story (You do not have to). Write it below and we will discuss them next week. Speak to your parents or family about it. I will be sharing my families story next week also. It would be good if we had some stories to share and who knows, they may be similar to one another.

My Great great uncle Jack .Beattie served in the REME ( Royal Elictrical Mechanical Engerniers) during WW2 . He was in France, Belgium and Holland. He was servealy injured after the tank he was in was blown up. American soldiers found him and he was taken to a field hospital. He lost his memory and his dog tag so no one knew who he was. But he was eventually sent back to England. He was sent to Stoke Madivile Hospital where is mother eventually found him through a friend who was visiting the hospital and recognised him. He sent several months in the hospital, as he had to learn to talk and walk again. But he was never was able to work again and lived with his mother for the rest of his life.

My Nanna has been through world war 2 and was starved but thankfully she didn't die then she had hardly any money at all. The olden times money were different to ours because you had halve pennies,1 pence pennies but no 2 pence pennies but also it was only 1 pence to go to the cinemas or halve a pennie to get a bag of sweets. My Nanna worked on a barn and nearly got killed by the Germans and they through big lumps of staw faster and faster to make her fall down the shoot which makes bails of hay and the Farmer to save her.

My Grandad was at school during the war. And there were soldiers that stood on top of the Kirk Merrington church. They would look right over the coast towards Hartlepool and try to look for the Axes (the Germans). If they saw any German ships or aeroplanes, they would ring the church bell and the air raid siren. This would be a sign that a bomb is about to get dropped somewhere near my Grandad's school. He would then rush out of the building, joined by his classmates, into the air raid shelters. her and his class panicked as they did not know if their families are okay or maybe their houses had been bombed. Once it was safe again, they would safely walk back to their classroom and start work again.

We did a play on evacuees and I really enjoyed it because I was Vera and everyone else was amazing at acting.

Today's assembly was brilliant. I really enjoyed it. Although we got through it quite quickly, it was really impressive.
