“Thank you for organising such an engaging and well-organised WWII school trip. It was a fantastic experience for the students, and they were thoroughly engaged throughout. The trip provided valuable learning opportunities that directly connected to what the pupils have been studying in class. We truly appreciate all the effort that went into making it such a success.”
