Black History Month | Brighton Avenue Primary School

Black History Month

In October the whole school celebrated Black History month. Mrs Allan spoke to the children about why it was important to look at black history within the UK. We looked at the endeavours and accomplishments of black people through history – from the nurse Mary Seacole to the USA former president Barack Obama.

Each class chose a different famous person from history and completed various activities, learning about why they should be remembered.

Y1 – Rosa Parks

Y2 – Barack Obama

Y3/4 – Mary Seacole

Y5 – Martin Luther King Jr

Y6 – Nelson Mandela.

Have a look at the children’s amazing work below.
