On Thursday 8th May we proudly celebrated 80 years since VE Day – a momentous occasion marking the end of WWII in Europe.

Children and staff came to school dressed in wonderful 1940s-style clothing and enjoyed traditional wartime games like hopscotch, jump rope, and jacks, bringing history to life in a fun and meaningful way.

A special thank you to Mr & Mrs Langwade for bringing in their classic car, along with wartime medals and ration books, and to Mrs Forster for sharing a treasured collection of her Nanna’s wartime artefacts – these special items gave the children a unique chance to see and learn about the past up close.

In the afternoon, we welcomed families into school for a touching celebration featuring readings, wartime songs, dancing, and 1940s music, followed by a warm cup of tea or coffee as we gathered together in remembrance.

Thank you to everyone who helped make today so special.
