On VE Day, the children learned all about what VE Day was and how important it is as part of our history. It is because of the brave women and men who fought during WWII that we are able to live our peaceful lives today and uphold our British Values of Democracy, Rule of Law, Individual Liberty, Mutual Respect and Tolerance of those of all faiths and beliefs.
We listened to 1940s music as we marched to our street party, held in the playground and decorated with the Union Jack Flag. We waved flags, and cheered before delving into our slap up fish ‘n’ chip lunch, followed by a beautiful Union Jack cake. Thank you to Hannah, our cook who works with Mellors – it was delicious!
Once were back in class, we looked at ration books and medals and photographs, so that we understood a little bit more about WWII.

We welcomed Spud Man into school on Wednesday 7th May. He brought us some lovely potatoes, growing bags and compost so we can grow our own spuds! Will one of us become Spud Kid?
We welcomed mums, grandmas, aunties, carers and all those who fulfil the role of a mother into school for a delicious afternoon tea style lunch. It was such a lovely event, there were huge smiles all round and the cakes were delicious!
