Join the Time Traveller as they journey back to 1948 to travel on the Empire Windrush as it voyages to Great Britain.

Through drama techniques like role-play, your children will step aboard and imagine what it was like to journey as passengers. Then, arriving in Britain, they will discover what settling in a new country was like, the difficulties of finding work and the discrimination that many people faced. For Y3 and Y4
