VE DAY
Commemorating VE Day
As we all know, this Friday 8th May is the 75th Anniversary of VE DAY. As a school we had planned to recognise this in various ways and activities- However, we would not like this day to go unnoticed and hope that VE DAY will also be acknowledged in our home- school this week. This can be done in a great number of ways-whether it be making bunting, having street parties, making a toast or looking at depth at a particular aspect of this period.
There are some generic links below to get you started- whilst on the class pages you will find some more age specific ones.
We would love to see your involvement- so take some photos and send them in to us.

Stay Safe
This might be fun to join in. Celebrate the 75 th anniversary of VE day with a picnic at home. I'll be having a red white and blue picnic - as long as it doesn't rain! Mrs M
Hi Bowness family! We are missing you lots! I saw this and thought I would put it on the website for you to have a look at and maybe join in, it’s for a really good cause! Stay home, stay safe ❤️ Miss Edwards
