Earlier this term, we were delighted to mark Windrush Day on Monday 22nd June by giving away our wonderful classroom film resource All Aboard The Empire Windrush completely free of charge to an amazing 500 schools!
This 35-minute 4K film brings the story of the Windrush Generation to life for KS1 and KS2 pupils through drama and first-person storytelling. Starring celebrated actress Dani Moseley from the hit BAFTA Award winning show ‘Dreaming Whilst Black’, it follows Grace and her son Clinton as they board the Empire Windrush in Jamaica and sail to a new life in post-war Britain. A full teacher resource pack is also included.

And if that wasn’t enough, every school that claimed a free film was entered into a free prize draw to win one of our popular Big Experiences, Time to Carnival!
Time To Carnival is one of our most joyful whole-school experiences: a vibrant, 60-minute interactive performance celebrating Caribbean heritage, music and community.
And we are thrilled to announce that the lucky winning school is – drumroll please – St James Hatcham Primary School in Lewisham. Congratulations – we can’t wait to visit you next term!
