St. George's Day was on 23rd April - England's national day.  St George's emblem, a red cross on a white background, is part of the flag of Great Britain.

This week the children have been discussing why they think it is called Great Britain.  These photographs are from 1/2 FC, 6LD and Lemons classes.

Listed below are some of the ideas from the other classes:-

Huge country
Great history
NHS
Armed forces
RSPCA
Fish and chips
Royal family
Premier league

Plenty of water to name but a few.
