During the afternoon, the children will be performing a selection of poems and asking thoughtful questions to their guests.

We hope that this simple, visual gesture will help set the tone for the day and mark the occasion in a respectful and inclusive way. The kitchen has put together a special lunch menu that is inspired by dishes from 1945 (please find menus attached). We also have outlined our plans for the day which can be found below.
