Traveller Education
Traveller History Rolls into Churcham Primary
Pupils at Churcham Primary School were in for a treat at the start of the school year, as Traveller pupils brought an old Gypsy Bow-top wagon (a Vardo in Romany) into the school. After an impressive presentation in assembly, they spent the day showing other pupils around the wagon, explaining how Travellers lived in the past. Staff and pupils were able use the visit as a basis for written and other work, and the Gloucester Citizen newspaper came to record the event.
