The word is "evacuation" (no 't'). It has nothing to do with air-raid shelters; it refers to a British policy, during WW2, of sending children out of cities (principally London) to stay with families in the countryside, in order that they should not be the victims of German bombing raids. The children were known as "evacuees"; in general they were welcomed and treated well. For a very funny satirical account of the system, see Evelyn Waugh's novel "Put Out More Flags".
