📚🌟 "As part of our Black History Month learning, Year 5 Hazel explored the lives and achievements of inspirational Black figures who have made a positive difference to society! We focused on Marcus Rashford and his campaign against child food poverty, before researching and creating posters celebrating influential individuals, including Mary Seacole, Rosa Parks and Dr Ika Web. Through their learning, the children reflected on the importance of determination, courage and resilience, discovering how these inspiring role models encourage us to Believe It, Dream It, Achieve It! Fantastic work, Hazel class!" ~ Ms Edwards-Tyndale
