We were all saddened to hear the news of the passing of our Queen. In school we talked about Her Majesty and we watched the Paddington Bear clip from the Platinum Jubilee celebrations earlier this year. We made marmalade sandwiches in the Queen’s honour.
We are delighted to be back at school and we have welcomed back familiar faces and met our new classmates. The children have settled back into school life very quickly and everyone has been making friends and exploring all the exciting activities inside and outside.
The children really enjoyed learning about Queen Elizabeth II (and her corgis!). We made bunting to decorate the school and we also made crowns for ourselves. We experimented with Jubilee Rice (red, white and blue). The children came in to school wearing red, white or blue clothes for our Jubilee Garden Party and we made …
