Black History Month in Year 5: Celebrating Local Heroes

This October, Year 5 has been diving into Black History Month by exploring the lives of inspiring individuals from Hammersmith and Fulham who made a difference in their communities and fought for justice and equality.

This year, our focus has been on Lolita Roy, a remarkable figure whose contributions to social justice continue to inspire. After learning about her life and achievements, the children created beautiful and imaginative fact files shaped like dresses. When opened, these dress-shaped displays reveal stories and facts about Lolita Roy, celebrating her legacy in a creative and meaningful way.

Through this project, Year 5 has also reflected on key principles of Catholic Social Teaching, including solidarity, the option for the poor, and the dignity of every person. We hope our work helps others appreciate the importance of standing together for justice and recognizing the value of every individual in our community.
