Black History Month- Nelson Mandela

This month is Black History Month so Year 1 have been learning about Nelson Mandela. We learnt that he was from South Africa. In the past, white people and black people had to lead seperate lives in South Africa. Mandela thought that everyone should be treated the same so he started peaceful protests to change this. He spent 27 years in prison. When he left prison he wasn't angry, he just wanted peace. He became the first black president in South Africa at 77 years old.

We have created artwork which will be displayed in the school hall as part of the Black History Month work that the whole school has taken part in. We also learnt the song 'Free Nelson Mandela' to celebrate his life and standing up for equality. We hope you enjoy our song!
