This week we had a super time commemorating and celebrating VE Day 80 and on the day itself we came to school dressed in red, white and blue or in 1940’s style clothing. Mrs Bradshaw looked particularly fabulous in her suit! At 9am we joined in with the National Proclamation marking the anniversary. This was read for us by John Gittins with Eva playing the part of the village crier with an excellent “oyez, oyez, oyez!” Later in the day we came back out onto the field to listen to the pealing of the church bells. In our classes we carried out activities to help us understand the significance of the day in history and to our lives today.

At lunchtime we enjoyed a fish and chip picnic and we even found time to fit our annual fun run in to the day! We really enjoyed the ice pops and biscuits from the Friends after all the running and were very pleased with our medals to recognise our efforts. Thank you Friends!
