On Friday 8th May, we will be celebrating VE Day, or Victory in Europe Day, which marks the day towards the end of World War Two when fighting against Nazi Germany came to an end in Europe. This year will be the 75th anniversary of this event. Below you will find links to two power points that will provide you with images and information to help you learn about this special date in our history. You could try to create some of the school activities from the 2nd power point at home.

Keep Fit
Don't forget to exercise while at home.
Fun jumps for kids to try include
- Jumping Jacks: stretch arms and legs out to the side like a starfish while jumping, return arms to sides and legs to center on landing
- Tuck Jumps: bend knees and lift heels high while jumping
- Hurdle Hops: jump side-to-side or front-to-back over pretend hurdle
- One-Foot Hops: lift one knee and jump on standing leg; alternate (this is a great balance challenge too!)
- Criss-Cross Feet: jump straight up, then cross one foot in front of the other; on next jump, switch feet and continue
Add in squats and lunges or sit-ups
Don't forget to do some simple stretches to warm up and cool down.
You can also access workout videos or yoga session on YouTube.
