EAST YORKS: Pupils from Hessle Penshurst Primary have visited Malton's Eden Camp Modern History Museum as part of their studies on war and conflict.
Eden Camp is one of the largest comprehensive museums covering British military and social history from 1914 onwards.
The trip was aimed at helping year six pupils understand what happened during the Second World War and how it impacted on Britain.
Jayne Ogle, year six teacher at the town primary, said: "We have been going to Eden Camp for the past few years as it lends itself perfectly to our study of war and conflict.
"We take the children at the beginning of teaching the subject because they generally have little knowledge of the Second World War and we find they acquire an interest which gets us off to a great start.
"The majority of the study is based on the Second World War. However, we finish by briefly looking at war today and whether it is the right way to resolve conflict."
