This week is the week of the national census in England and
children across the school have been learning all about what a census is and
how it helps us to understand our changing population. At the beginning of the
week you should have received a booklet with activities for the children and at
the end of the week children will have a certificate to take home. Children in
Year 6 have been looking at changes in population in Colchester over the past
100 years and what this means for public services. Other year groups have
focussed on the first ever census and how collecting population data helps
organisations such as the NHS to plan for the future. We hope that the census
lessons the children have taken part in, help them to understand its
importance. |
