VE Day - Year 5

Last week, Year 5 were learning about VE Day. They wrote a newspaper article as if they had been there and imagined themselves as soldiers fighting during the war. In preparation for lockdown tea parties on Friday 8th May, they made bunting and paper hats.

the cron virus is still here I can look through

my window.''
