Proud Teacher Moment at the VE Day Service

Today was one of those days when you remember why you became a teacher!

Paisley, Erin, Myla, George, Olivia, Willow, Willow, Macky, Reeva and Gabby were invited to read a poem at the VE Day Memorial service in Thorne Park this morning and I was so proud of the children and the way that even the very youngest of them seemed to understand that although it was a celebration of the end of the war, it was also a solemn occasion which they were attending to show respect.

Winston Churchill once said  – “Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it’ – so the chance to attend events such as these where they can begin to understand the devastating effects of war will hopefully ingrain in them the importance of peace.

You were a credit to yourselves, your families and our school.

You were all awesome!

***Key stage 1 family learning***

Year 1 and 2 would like to invite parents and carers to our family learning event at 2pm on Thursday 15th May.

We will be making rockets! Can’t wait to see how creative you all are!

PLEASE ENSURE YOU ALL ARRIVE AT THE HALL DOORS THROUGH THE ASH TREE ROAD GATE. THIS IS THE ONLY ENTRANCE THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO ENTER SCHOOL AT THIS TIME ON THIS DATE.
