Remembrance Day 2023
We commemorated Remembrance Day on Thu 9th Nov in an afternoon assembly.
Y3 children were asked who we are remembering and older children were asked the meaning of 'Lest We Forget'.
Mrs Murphy talked about the first Remembrance Day and the sad story of the Grossart brothers who lived in Crosby.
Some Year 5s read their moving poppy poems in the style of Laura Mucha.
Year 6s led our prayers.
Our EYFS children in Forest School have made poppies for Remembrance Day.
Holocaust Memorial Day 2022 - One Day
On Holocaust Memorial Day we turned our website purple to commemorate the day. Year 6 saw the film 'The Island on Bird Street' at the Plaza cinema.
. Other year groups learned about the Holocaust on the theme of 'One Day', through a variety of age appropriate activities from The Holocaust Educational Trust and Holocaust Memorial Day Trust.
Please read their responses to the question on the display.
