Back to School

We hear about school closures in rural Wales; an archaeological dig in Gwynedd and the memories of farm life for a, now 90 year old, wartime evacuee.

It's back to school but what's the consequences of rural school closures on families and the communities? We speak to a family in Powys who will next year see the closure of their local primary school and hear from the Welsh Government's Education Minister. A race against time - excavations unearth the secrets of an Iron Age hillfort at risk from the sea in Gwynedd. And another iconic Welsh landmark - campaigners saving Rodney鈥檚 Pillar on Breidden Hill. And fond memories in troubled times - an evacuee returns to visit the farm in Radnorshire, where he was sent during the war.
