The Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations

 Here are some photos and videos links from the Platinum Jubilee celebrations that took place at each site. 

All classes, from Nursery right up to Year 6, took part in various activities both in class and at breaks and lunches, to mark the occasion: crown-making, a special assembly, maypole dancing, flag-making, quizzes, British Values mindfulness activities to name but a few! Lunchtime became an outdoor picnic experience with our talented cooks creating some delicious and healthy traditional sandwiches and snacks.

The children looked fantastic in their Red White and Blue colours and they performed their songs and dances like true superstars! Plus there were some very surprised faces when our special guest arrived to dance with them!

What do you know about Jewish weddings?

We are learning about Weddings from different religions as part of our RE lessons this term.

Have you ever been to a wedding? What happened? How was it celebrated?

We wrote questions to ask our Chair of Governors, Mr Robert Young, who is Jewish, about his experiences of Jewish weddings. Mr Robert Young came in to school to show us some photographs of his own wedding, discussing the Jewish traditions. We learnt about the wedding vows, the exchanging of rings and he even smashed a glass - just like the Jewish groom would do at a wedding!

MAZEL TOV!
