We always have lots of fun in our History club…one of the best things about it is that the children choose the topic every week…not necessarily themes that are normally covered in our curriculum, but subjects in which they are especially interested. However, one of the most popular talking points is World War 2 and the events that were part of it. We spent the first part of club tonight discussing the emotions felt after the announcement of the end of the conflict. We proudly gave the iconic ‘V for Victory’ sign in front of our corridor display tonight. A sign made famous by the then Prime Minister, Winston Churchill as he appeared on the balcony of Buckingham Palace with King George VI, Queen Elizabeth and the Princesses Elizabeth and Margret to commemorate the end of the fighting in Europe.
