We all came to school dressed in red, white and blue and learnt all about why VE Day was important. We had an assembly and showed off our VE Day creations from our morning of activities. Key Stage One sang a song all about a street party and the Reception children showed off their marching skills.

A VE Day celebration would not be complete without a little 'We’ll Meet Again,' which we all enjoyed singing together. Finally, we finished with a 1940’s dance - we had all the moves. It was a wonderful way to celebrate together.

Wendy from Tamworth Library came to present us with our certificate & trophy in a special assembly.



Well done to everyone who took part and made this possible.

The question is… can we do it again next year and get a hattrick?
