Grantham Museum opened its doors to primary school pupils eager to learn about the Dam Busters raid and its links to the town.
The children from St Mary’s in Grantham visited as part of the museum’s educational season. Staff at the museum gave talks to the children on the historic raid.
Museum chairman Helen Goral said: “It’s important that the Museum actively encourages young people to visit and engage with our history and our main role is to provide an educational resource for the local community.
“The children were fantastic and embraced the learning experience with a huge amount of enthusiasm and it was a pleasure to have them visit, they are a real credit to the school.”
The museum would encourage any school interested in making a similar visit to get in touch in the new school year.
