To begin commemorating the 80th anniversary of VE Day, coming up on the 8th May, the History Pupil Voice children were lucky enough to be invited to Barking Town Hall's flag raising ceremony and even helped raise the flag! After this, the children were invited inside, where they had the opportunity to chat with the Mayor of Barking and Dagenham, who also introduced them to the future mayor. They enjoyed tasty refreshments while they met many councillors and heard about their roles. It was such a special occasion, which all of the children thoroughly enjoyed being a part of.
