Work station 2
Knitting and darning, all traditional skills that people of World War Two had to undertake.  Pupils can try their skills at this too.
Rationing was a major problem during World War Two.  Anyone for banana-flavoured parsnips on their sandwiches?

 

 

Work station 3
Women made a significant impact on the War effort with Land Girls in the fields and the Women's Timber Corp in the forests.
