VE Day Celebrations

To celebrate the end of World War 2, people from around the country held street parties. So we decided to hold our very own Victory Party in Llanhari Primary School.

Classes 6 and 7 put up bunting, enjoyed a plate of 'rationed' food and raised a glass (of milk) to the brave servicemen and servicewomen who fought for our country. We also made a toast to all people who helped to keep us safe, to whom we are very grateful!

Da iawn, pawb, ymdrech ardderchog!



The children brought their gas masks ........ just in case!!



The children raised a glass to all the brave men and women who were part of World War 2.

Heidi went blackberry picking!!

So remember ..... help save our planet by recycling all we can!

Causes of the Great War!

To mark the centenary of World War 1, class 7 have been finding out about the causes of the war. The children worked in pairs to discuss various causes and then they ranked them in order of importance in a Diamond Nine activity.  Each group were able to give their reasons for their choices.

Very well done!

An example of our Diamond Nine activity.

Our Topic -Blitz!

Our topic this term is Blitz! 

To start the topic, we organised a timeline of key events in the 20th century.
Over the year, we will be studying some of these events.
