Black History Month

This week was the beginning of Black History Month. 
Assemblies introduced the Month with stories about inspirational Black figures from history and today.

For the youngest children in our school community we have enjoyed listening to stories about coming to live in the UK from abroad and thinking about the journeys some of our families have made to live here in Wombwell.
We particularly enjoyed the story of Floella Bengamin and  how she remembers her first weeks in the UK as a child.
