The project aims to 'reflect, reveal, and redress omissions in our collective memory about Transatlantic Slave and West Indies Trades and the enslaved people who came through or stayed in Lancaster. ' The children ( and adults!) were fascinated to learn about a young boy who, around 250 years ago, was taken from West Africa and was enslaved in the house of the Reverend, Mr. Clarkson, Rector at Heysham. Due to the markings on his face, we know that he belonged to the Ebo Country. However, his name was not known. Therefore, as part of the project he now been given a name he deserves: Afamefuna meaning 'My name will not be lost.' ![St. Peter's C of E Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/st-peter-s-c-of-e-primary-school/images/logo/Home_logo_(1)-st-peters.png) ### St. Peter's C of E Primary School School Road Heysham LA3 2RF 01524 852155 ### Chair of Governors Information - [Mr Matthew Entwistle](https://www.stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/governors) - [Chairofgovernors@stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk](https://www.stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/contact) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/heyshamstpetersprimary) - [X](https://twitter.com/StPetersCofEPri) © Copyright 2023–2026 St. Peter's C of E Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
