BLC primary schools attended a special end of summer term event to commemorate Windrush. The day was hosted at Evelyn Grace Academy and the brilliant secondary school staff organised an impressive selection of secondary school taster activities with a Caribbean theme, alongside a Windrush exhibition organised by Pegasus Opera Company. This was followed by a workshop and exciting schools’ performance given by Pegasus of a specially commissioned new work: Windrush Opera, representing the real-life stories and experiences of elders from the Lambeth community who came to the UK from the Caribbean to help rebuild post-war Britain. Students from Heron Academy also attended the afternoon event to enjoy the wonderful opera performance.
