Form 2D and 2P Assemblies

Form 2 held their class assemblies this term and as always the children amazed us with their professionalism and ability to remember such interesting facts and fabulous songs. Based on our history topics of the term, Form 2D enjoyed sharing the facts that they had learnt about Florence Nightingale. They also performed a sketch, demonstrating what life was like in a hospital during Florence’s time in Scutari and their song was infectious (excuse the pun!) - we were all singing about taking our medication for weeks! Form 2P’s assembly was slightly more poignant and focussed on life as an evacuee during World War II. They told us all about evacuation, rationing, Make Do and Mend, the Dig for Victory campaign, the Blitz and air raid shelters. The children thoroughly enjoyed reciting their facts and singing songs to their parents, grandparents and peers alike. Both assemblies were extremely well-attended in person but we also had an impressive online audience from as far afield as the Philippines, India, Australia, USA and Turkey with 96 viewers tuning in to the 2D assembly and 98 watching the 2P assembly.
