This week the Preschool children continued to celebrate Black history month and the children enjoyed learning all about key figures such as Nelson Mandela, Rosa Parks, Mary Seacole, Diane Abbott and Martin Luther king and their individual backgrounds and what made them famous.

The children enjoyed discussing the information sheets and creating their own portraits of each famous individual using skin tone pencils and crayons and learning all about differences, as we focus on equality and celebrating what makes us unique.

The children were keen to ask questions such as “Where did they live?” “What are the badges in her dress?” “Why is lady wearing glasses?”
