It was with great sadness that we heard the news of the death of Queen Elizabeth II. As you will have seen on the head teachers blog the children have had time to reflect on her historic reign as the longest serving monarch in UK history. Children have told us about watching the funeral with their family and what the queen meant to them. We will certainly be making sure we celebrate the Queen's life again as a full school in the future. As we did with the jubilee children will have chance to reflect on the life The Queen and look back at what our country was like when she first became monarch on 6 February 1952 and how it has changed through the decades over the past 70 years.
This week in our whole school assembly, children learnt about Nelson Mandela and what a significant character he was to South Africans.
They learnt about what he believed in and why he did the things he did. They learnt about his background and how that shaped his future and that of South Africa. This week in our cultural assembly, children learnt about Emmeline Pankhurst.
They learnt about her early life and what influenced her to think and act the way she did. They learnt about her actions and her fight for justice, learnt about the consequences of her actions and how she influenced the thoughts of others. The children shared their own views on Emmeline's thoughts and watched a video to learn more. |
