Celebrating VE Day - 80th Anniversary
Last week we celebrated the 80th anniversary of VE Day. The LRC was festooned with red, white and blue and students took part in a range of different activities to mark the occasion. We had a specially recorded Collective Worship with singing and narration from students (click link below to view), a poster-making competition, a quiz and a packed-out raffle event in aid of the charity Help For Heroes. We also updated our movement music between lessons to ‘In The Mood‘ by Glenn Miller which was reminiscent of the wartime era.
