The children were sent to the country to live with people there. Some were sent to Ireland and the United States. These were children of the more wealthier families. The children who were evacuated from London and other towns were called evacuees.

Evacuees of London, England during World War II, most of them children, were sent to towns and cities that were north of London, England. Many citizens of London, England stayed in underground shelters overnight during the bombings. They had to leave them during the day and then stand in line to get back into them at night.
During World War II, London was a dangerous place. The city was subject to a period of sustained bombing from the German Luftwaffe (air force) and so thousands of city children were sent to stay out in the country, where it was believed they would be safe. Country people opened up their homes to these children, taking them in for months at a time to provide a safe haven for them.
Parents desperate to get their kids away from the Nazis sent them on the Kindertransport. The trip was rough on the kids but they were sent to safe areas like London where they lived with friends or relatives until the war was over.
Yes, I think so. I don't have the book at hand, but if I remember correctly, the children were sent away by their parents to the professor's home, for their protection. The book takes place during World War II, and the kids are English. At that time, Great Britain and especially London was under heavy bombing by the Nazis, so a lot of parents sent their children away someplace safer.

Before the beginning of the novel, the Pevensie children lived in London with their mother, while their father was fighting in the war. At the very beginning of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe they were sent to live in the country, to be away from the bombings that were happening in London. This happened to many children during the war- they left London to live with strangers in the country, which was safer than living with the constant bombings.

I don't think there is a particular word for Wales, but children sent away from their families for the duration of war are "evacuees".

They were sent away to homes in the country side away from where the was was taking place.
