Celebrating Black History Month

Over the month of October, Year 6 have studied many aspects of Black History: black scientists, musicians, poets, Mary Seacole, British Empire, African slavery and Windrush.

Today was our grand finale and we celebrated by having a Caribbean Day.  We ate bun and cheese, dumpling, coconuts, guineps and even cooked banana fritters too.
Dancing and laughter was had throughout the day with our final activity, designing anti-racist  t-shirts.
​
I am proud of the mature debates and discussions which took place over the month.  Year 6 asked intelligent questions and made links with life in Britain today.  I have no doubt, they will be the future ambassadors and torch bearers for equality.
Well done Year 6.
