Second World War
A 21st Century Perspective
About the Project


WW2 Home

This project has involved over 80 pupils from all over Bedfordshire with ages ranging from 8 to 18. They have spent time together with "Living Historians", on a visit to the Imperial War Museum and at an exhibition sharing their resources. They have also given up much of their own time to interview war veterans and research aspects of the war that interested them. Thirteen of the pupils went to Berlin to represent the project and bought back some vital information about life during the war in Germany. 

The schools involved were:

  • Camestone Lower
  • Downside Lower
  • Hockliffe Lower
  • Southlands Lower
  • Wilstead Lower
  • Burgoyne Middle
  • Holmemead Middle
  • Sandye Place Middle
  • Wootton Upper
  • Redborne Upper
