Welcome to St George : Year 1/2
Class Teacher - Miss Airey Teaching Assistant - Mrs Suarez Teaching Assistant : Mrs Byrne
Here's a little bit about St George:
St. George is the patron saint of England. His emblem, a red cross on a white background, is the flag of England, and part of the British flag. St George's emblem was adopted by Richard The Lion Heart and brought to England in the 12th century. The King's soldiers wore it on their tunics to avoid confusion in battle.
Saint George is popularly identified with England and English ideals of honour, bravery and gallantry, but actually he wasn’t English at all. Very little is known about the man who became St George.
