Learn how wartime women broke out of their traditional roles when men went away to fight in the trenches during the Great War.
A talk for children, Women at War, will examine how thousands of women proudly became postwomen, farmers, bus conductors and even footballers.
Bourne Hall Museum Kids Club says: "Away from the frontline horrors of the trenches, the battle for the high seas and the dogfights in the skies was another, less well-known battlefront, the home front.
"With thousands of men away at war there was a desperate need for people to fill these jobs."
The session will consider how women rose to the challenge and took on a huge range of sometimes dangerous roles.
