Fred came to speak to pupils in October about his experience of being on the KInder transport. He visited again for the show case and was interested in discussing the UN Convention on the rights of children with the pupil who was with this exhibit
There was an opportunity to celebrate the award of School of Sanctuary at Llangors Church in Wales Primary School when they threw open the doors to welcome parents, family and friends to the junior section show case event on December 7th . It was good to be able to share their detailed, in depth exploration of sanctuary and the ways that the pupils have been encouraged by their inspiring teachers to use this topic to access many subjects as well as covering so many different countries, periods of history, natural history and types of poetry. Some inspiring teaching and learning.
The first person empathetic poetry on display. [names redacted]

This experiential experiment worked well when pupils spent a day recreating the Calais jungle and thinking about what it might be like to be homeless

This was a reminder of when teachers placed a sleeping bag, cardboard, papers,foreign food wrappers, a map, money a passport and a prayer mat in the grounds and sealed it with police tape. Pupils were asked to try to deduce what had happened and to write a report.

this was one of the prize winning entries in HBTSR’s Refugee Week Competition earlier this year. The pupil discussed it with parents and sought their views upon how the UK looks after people seeking sanctuary

A pupil talked about sanctuary and then asked parents to write a word that described their feelings about immigration policy.

Work on Afghanistan was inspired by the visit to the school by Hamed Amiri ,author of The Boy with Two Hearts.

The pupils were asked to research, write and illustrate aspects of Afghanistan’s history, geography, natural history and culture.
