Black History Month

Every October we celebrate Black History Month at Harry Roberts Nursery School. The books we've particularly focused on this year are Handa's Surprise, We're Going on a Lion Hunt, and No Dinner for Anansi. There are lots of resources on the website related to these books including versions read by school staff. We've also added songs and rhymes to celebrate too. 
In school we have been sharing other books too. There are so many books which celebrate diversity and it's great to enjoy these together. Children need to see their own experiences reflected in the stories we read and books also enable us to learn about and appreciate other people.
