Rationing surprises!

This afternoon, we considered another way that England protected itself during WW2: rationing. We found out about the different items that were rationed to ensure a fair share and to ensure everyone was able to eat. People during the war were extremely resourceful, making their rations go a long way and growing their own vegetables too!

We were quite surprised by some of the items that were rationed and blown away by the fact that rationing continued for so long after the war! We didn't think we would have liked having our food restricted!
