Resources for schools and educators

We have been inspired by the recent initiative by community organiser Geoff Simmons in collaboration with Fircroft Primary School as part of the Summerstown182 community history project celebrating the migrants who made Tooting their home, and teamed up with Schools of Sanctuary on a series of creative activities for schools/educators to get involved with for International Migrants Day.
