Official evacuees from Erith in Kent, arrived in Worlington in June 1940. They would have been transported by train, wearing tags giving their name, address and school, and on arrival at the station, would then have been brought by bus to the school to be collected by local residents, to live with them until it was safe for them to return home. A local Billeting Officer would have arranged places with anyone who had space in their house, an arrangement that didnât please everyone. Some children were lucky, with good placements and happy lives, while others were put into unsuitable billets, with allegations that they were poorly fed and not looked after well. |
