On Wednesday 25th June, we were honoured to attend the Windrush Day celebrations with Ravenstone Primary School and Positive Network Community. Val Crolle, Family Liaison Lead at Ravenstone Primary School; Grace Salmon, Community Coordinator; and Maxine Binger, an Education Volunteer for the Positive Network Community Project, gathered voices of the Windrush Generation to share their inspirational stories with pupils and the community. 👏🏻👏🏽👏🏿 Val shared: "Learning history from a textbook can sometimes feel mundane for children. But hearing powerful, inspiring real-life stories - directly from those with lived experience of migrating to Britain after World War II to help with the post-war labour shortage - was the most impactful and memorable learning they could have imagined." Thank you to Ravenstone Primary School, Val, Grace, Maxine and the wonderful Windrush speakers for this incredible opportunity to learn from those who lived through this historic chapter and be inspired by their stories. 🎊🎊🎊 #educationchoicesmagazine #educationcornerpodcast #educationchoices #educationmatters #EDIB #DEI #equality #diversity #inclusion #belonging #Windrush #Windrushgeneration #inspiration #RavenstonePrimarySchool #LondonSchool #history

Windrush Day is great but justice would be better.

This government must secure justice for the Windrush Generation.
