Celebrating cultures across our school

Culture Week brought colour, music, stories, art and dance into classrooms across Bidston Avenue.

Children explored traditions from many different parts of the world. Activities included Spanish dancing and flamenco, Indian stories, Rangoli patterns, African-inspired dot paintings and workshops delivered with support from the Minority Ethnic Achievement Service and our wonderful cook, Monica, and Edsential kitchen team.

Year 5 also explored British culture and the five British Values, considering how democracy, respect, tolerance, individual liberty and the rule of law shape our lives.  The week gave children the chance to celebrate differences, ask thoughtful questions and learn more about the many cultures represented within our school and wider community.
