VE Day 80th Anniversary- Red, white and blue day

To celebrate the 80th anniversary of VE Day (Victory in Europe), we are encouraging the children to come to school in red, white and blue to commemorate this important milestone. We ask that a donation of £1 is made via parent pay and this will be sent to the RBLI (Royal British Legion Industries) to support the already fantastic work that they do in supporting the armed forces community. Throughout the week, the children will take part in a special worships to educate them and mark this event.
