Members of Rainbow Stars visiting The Alvey Air Raid Shelter.
William Alvey CofE School, in East Gate, is now welcoming visitors to The Alvey Air Raid Shelter, as it has been dubbed.
Renovation work began on the Second World War-era shelter in July of last year – the roof was repaired, a partition wall was removed, the rotting floor and unsafe benches were replaced, lighting was installed and a glass door fitted.
Overseeing the project has been headteacher Stephen Tapley and teacher and history coordinator Natalie Mason.
Now open for bookings.
It has been supported by crowdfunding donations topping £1,400 (see www.justgiving.com/campaign/air-raid) and, just recently, a £3,000 sum from the Johnson and Mukherjee Brothers Charity.
