Over the past week, our School Council members have been researching famous Black individuals who have made a significant impact on the world. Each year group created fantastic posters, sharing interesting facts and information about a range of inspirational people, highlighting their achievements and why they are remembered today. The assembly provided a wonderful opportunity for our pupils to share their learning with their peers, celebrate diversity and reflect on the importance of equality, respect and inclusion. Well done to all of the children for the time, effort and enthusiasm they put into their research and presentations. Their work helped us all learn something new and reminded us of the importance of recognising and celebrating Black history, not just during October, but throughout the year. Well done to our School Council and all the children involved for helping make this such a meaningful celebration. --- ### Celebrating Black History Month 2026 [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/celebrating-black-history-month-2026/IMG_0724b.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/celebrating-black-history-month-2026/IMG_0724b.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/celebrating-black-history-month-2026/IMG_0726a.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/celebrating-black-history-month-2026/IMG_0726a.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/celebrating-black-history-month-2026/IMG_0727a.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/celebrating-black-history-month-2026/IMG_0727a.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/celebrating-black-history-month-2026/IMG_0729a.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/gallery/celebrating-black-history-month-2026/IMG_0729a.jpg) [ Year 1 Art - Self-Portraits 2026](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/news/2026-10-20-year-1-art-self-portraits-2026) [Year 5 Science - Creating Salt Flats ](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/news/2026-10-22-year-5-science-creating-salt-flats) ### Our School - [Welcome from our Headteacher](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/welcome-from-our-headteacher) - [About our School](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/about-our-school) - [Our News](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/news) - [Values, Vision and Mission Statement](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/values-vision-missionstatement) - [Open Events](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/open-events) - [Virtual Tour](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/virtual-tour) - [Our Staff](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/staff) - [Admissions](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/admissions) - [Governance](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/governors) - [School Prospectus](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/school-prospectus) - [Policies and Reports](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/policies) - [School Performance Data](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/school-performance-data) - [Ofsted and Academic Results](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/Ofsted-and-Academic-Results) - [The Equality Act](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/student-support/the-equality-act) - [Work for Us](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/our-school/work-for-us1) - [Omega MAT](https://omegamat.co.uk/) - [Contact Us](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/contact) ![Burtonwood Community Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/burtonwood-community-primary-school/images/logo/Omega_Part_of_Logo_White_Mono.png) **Burtonwood Community Primary School** Green Lane Burtonwood Warrington WA5 4AQ Tel: 01925 224072 Email: ## Follow Us - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090550038773&locale=en_GB) - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/omega-multi-academy-trust) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/burtonwoodcps) ## Translation © Copyright 2020–2026 Burtonwood Community Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://burtonwoodcp.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/) Update cookies preferences
