Old Trafford and the Imperial War Museum

We had a brilliant day on our trip to Manchester where we visited Old Trafford and the War Museum.  At Old Trafford, we had a stadium tour (it was really interesting to look in the 'actual' changing rooms and see how big the stadium actually is).  We looked around the museum and had a history session about how WW2 had impacted Manchester and Old Trafford - which got bombed. After our morning session and lunch, we went to the Imperial War Museum to see the artefacts on display from WW2. This was at the start of our topic so it was a really good way to find out lots of key information straight away which we could make more sense of back in school during the spring term.
