Year 5 Class Assembly

Thank you to Year 5 for a very thought-provoking assembly today. They gave us a powerful performance about life in Britain during World War II and how the lessons learned can be used in their own lives. They were inspiring and brought tears to many eyes. Thank you to all the parents who came along to support them.
