Year 6 pupils visited
HMS Belfast on Wednesday. Moored on the River Thames by Tower Bridge, the Belfast is a Second World War ship with a fascinating history. Year 6 attended a workshop where they learnt many interesting facts: did you know that the sailors had to work in temperatures of -30 degrees Celsius as they travelled in convoys through the Arctic Ocean? Pupils were allowed to explore the ship and they had great fun climbing up and down the ladders.
“I couldn’t believe the amount of weaponry. It was a gigantic boat with four decks!” said Charlie.
“We liked the gun turret where there was an interactive video of what it would have been like in the war – it was quite scary” exclaimed Sasha and Megan.
