Today in class worship, Year were introduced to VE Day and explored its meaning. They learnt that it means ‘Victory in Europe Day’ and how tomorrow (8th May) will mark this by celebrating 80 years since the end of World War II. Year 1 understood the significance and joy that this would have brought to everyone in Europe. They looked at pictures of people having street parties, dancing and singing and understood that this would have been a time of great relief and happiness where people could live more peacefully and not have to fear for their own lives or the lives of their friends and family. Year 1 are looking forward marking the occasion on Friday by wearing the colours of the Union Jack.
