Reflecting and Remembering

Today was a special day across the whole school as we spent it remembering the life of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth. In the HUB we engaged in a range of activities that helped us to reflect upon her amazing reign. We watched when ‘Paddington Met The Queen’ which made us really giggle and then followed instructions to make a marmalade sandwich. There were mixed reviews as to the taste of these but it we did a great job using our skills to make them!

 

We waited with patience and respect in the school hall to sign the book of condolences. Our names are now recorded within Christopher Pickering History as part of this very significant event.

We discussed why Union flags have been flying at half-mast across the national during the period of mourning for Queen Elizabeth II. Flags are lowered to half-mast as a symbol of respect and mourning so we made our own mini flags to show our respects.

During our creative choice session, Amelia made a beautiful crown to show people that she is remembering the life of Queen Elizabeth.
