The Coronation of King Charles lll 👑
What a wonderful day we had celebrating the coronation of King Charles lll despite the change in weather. During in crew, we designed royal book marks and played bottle flipping. The aim was to see how many times we could the bottle in 30 seconds. Well done to Henry who was the winner with 3!
Precision Pinning Piper!
That’s right. Piper takes the crown (pardon the pun) of becoming the blindfolded pinning princess (and again) by being this afternoon’s winner of ‘pin the jewel on Charles’ Crown’ competition. This was a game intended for our community Coronation event which was sadly rained off only for the weather to be cracking the flags come 2pm 🤦. Anyhow, enjoy your long weekend everyone and again, well done to Piper.
Coronation Lunch
The children have enjoyed a special Coronation lunch prepared by our lovely kitchen staff.

Finally, we pained the and Miss Gate used vinegar and baking powder to create the eruption! What a brilliant afternoon!
