In Reception we read Big Hair, Don't Care as part of Black History Month. To celebrate our differences we had a 'Big Hair Day'. Here are some photographs.
BIg Hair, Don't Care
In Year 2 we learned about
- Lilian Bader
- Stormzy
- Marcus Rashford and
- John Kent.
We then mixed with the other class and explained what our favourite part of Black History Month was and why.
" I enjoyed learning about John Kent because he inspired lots of people to go into the policeforce"
" I liked Marcus Rashford because he's so kind and generous. He's also brave because he spoke to the government"
"I like learning about Lilian Bader because she encouraged lots of girls to go into the airforce"
Year 2 - African Dance Workshop
Aisha explains why she enjoyed learning about Stormzy as part of Black History Month
Year 4
To celebrate Black History Month, Year 4 were luck enough to take part in an African Dance workshop. We learnt new moves and enjoyed putting them together in a sequence.
We also worked in partners across the year group to research about black people who played a significant role in the past and present to fight for change and equality. We then combined our research to create a quilt work pattern.
