Serving our community
At the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month Year 6 holds a ceremony of Remembrance for the fallen soldiers of Banks Village at the War Memorial at St Stephen's Church. The children learn about WW2 and its impact on the local community. We are grateful to Rev'd Rebecca for leading the ceremony, to Mr Tom Cropper our Chair of Governors who organises the wreath and to Mr Bill Abram of Banks Brass Band who plays the Last Post. The ceremony is extremely moving and each year we have more and more members of the community coming to join in the ceremony. Our band also plays.
Every Monday is Generation Club (starting again Spring 2023) when Miss Squibb and Miss Sykes take a group of children to visit the residents of the local care home. During the pandemic we missed Generation Club very much. We sent a picture with the children's thumb prints on it to the care home, to let the residents know that we are still thinking about them. We also sent letters and received some wonderful replies, which are on display outside Mrs Owen's office.
We look forward to Carol Singing at the care home in December!
