Black History Week

Our school promotes equality of opportunity and diversity. Our intent is that pupils understand, appreciate and respect difference in the world and its people, celebrating the things we share in common across cultural, religious, ethnic and socio-economic communities. Black History week and month is a great platform from which to encourage celebration and recognition of the contribution of Black People to the UK and the world throughout the year.

During our Black History Week we hope to implement a range of engaging activities to interest and enthuse our pupils under the theme wellness and health.

We have carefully chosen locally important figures as well as international musicians and historically significant people in order to make our children’s learning experiences relevant and memorable.

By drawing on the rich resources in our locality such as Burnage Library and Central Library we will provide live activities, zoom workshops, poet interviews and even a chance to meet one of our chosen significant people.

See below for each class's focus for the celebration.

Visit the Gallery next week to have a look at all of our wonderful work!
