    Vesak, also known as Buddha Day, is a major Buddhist festival that commemorates the Buddha's birth, enlightenment, and death (for some Buddhists). It's celebrated on the full moon on Monday, May 12th 2025. Celebrations vary, but generally involve temple visits, chanting, prayer, making offerings, and participating in cultural events like lantern-making workshops. #compassion #dignity #vesak

    TMSA Year 8 classes, currently studying the end of the Second World War, enjoyed a VE Day party in class yesterday and today. The classroom was beautifully decorated with bunting and flags and had tea cakes, cookies and lemonade for the children. They had 1940's music and dancing and a quiz about the war. What a lovely start to their day. Thank you to Mr Pressland for organising. #VEDAY #compassion #dignity #kindness #courage #endeavour
