Black History Month

By Fir Class, in Year 2 - Friday, 11 October 2024

This week the children have learnt all about the really inspiring Olympic athlete Wilma Rudolph. She overcame huge obstacles in her life to become the first American woman to win 3 gold medals in the same Olympic games in 1960. The children were so enthusiastic about their poster making project and the reults were fantastic. Over the weekend perhaps you can ask your child what they remember about her fascinating life story (and yes she really did have 21 brothers and sisters!)
