Black history month in 10A 2025

 

On Friday we celebrated Black History month. The learners have a few colouring sheets of key figures and word searches that were connected to Black History month.

Whilst doing these work sheets the class watched live chat on Picture News which was named “Standing firm in your power and pride”. We found out that lots of other schools and youth groups were listening to this live chat call at the same time. 

There was a special guest on this picture news today. It was Swarzy, the Radio 1, Radio 1xtra, journalist/DJ.

She chatted about name pronunciation and it’s ok to say to others if someone hasn’t said your name correctly.

She also chatted about famous Black people like Rosa Parks, the black woman who dared to say “NO” when was asked to get up from her seat on a bus and Hamza, who is also known as the Ranger on CBBC and who won Strictly Come Dancing. 

There were lots of questions for Swarzy herself, like how old she was, did she have any siblings and why she became a DJ.
