What does family mean to you?

Norfolk GRT Service have developed some resources for this years GRTHM theme of ‘What Does Family Mean to You?’

These include creating a family crest with Children and Young People (CYP) in schools and exploring poetry, creating poems that share the meaning of family with others.

Information about these resources can be found in the ‘Celebrations, Displays and Assemblies’ section on their GRT Cultural Resources padlet.

Click to book your spot on the Zoom call,

Every year the school’s Traveller community work alongside other staff and students at the school to plan and deliver a special assembly to mark Gypsy, Roma and Traveller History month and to celebrate the rich history and culture that Travellers bring to the school.

This year, for the first time ever, St Stephens would love to share their assembly with you and your school community too!

You don’t have to be in Preston, or even in Lancashire, because St Stephens are going to broadcast the whole assembly on Zoom so that people from all over the world have the opportunity to share and celebrate or even learn something new about this often-overlooked community.

So whether you have a GRT population in your school or not, why not get your class or even your whole school together and use the opportunity to come and enjoy watching St Stephens’ Gypsy, Roma and Traveller History Month assembly?
