# Understanding what life was like during the Blitz

   2 October 2023   [Class Three](https://www.st-andrews-cliftoncampville.staffs.sch.uk/blog/category/class-three)

Children have been learning about the events during the Blitz. They have looked at the reasons behind the Blitz and the impact this had on people’s lives, including children who were evacuated during this time. We watched a useful video to explain this with an interview with a survivor from the time.

Children looked at photographs taken during the Blitz and considered what they can tell us about life at this time. How did people cope? How did life continue with any normality? What immediate damage did the Blitz cause?
