All Key Stage 2 children across the Fioretti Trust completed reflective pieces of work based to mark the 30th anniversary since the murder of Stephen Lawrence. We completed work on role models and looked at the changes we want to see in the world.
Please look at the video below for a taster of what work has been produced by the children across the trust.
At St Francis, we are proud to celebrate our local area through a whole-school History Week focused on Bournville and its rich heritage.
Throughout the week, each year group investigates a different historical enquiry question linked to Bournville, allowing knowledge and understanding to build progressively as children move through the school. Pupils take part in local walks around the village to observe, question and explore different historical features and aspects of the community. These experiences help children make meaningful connections between the past and present whilst developing a strong sense of place and belonging.
Children also engage in a range of practical activities, discussions and vocabulary-rich learning to deepen their understanding of local history and the impact Bournville has had on the wider city of Birmingham. Through this work, we aim to foster curiosity, pride in our local community and an appreciation of how history continues to shape the world around us.
