Jubilee

On the 23rd May 2022, we celebrated the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

So what is a Platinum Jubilee? A Platinum Jubilee – which the Queen has recently celebrated – is to mark 70 years reigning on the throne and is a very special event, specifically for the queen because she is the first monarch that has ever reigned this long in the history of the Earth.

At St. Matthews, we celebrated by practicing dances, songs and making Jubilee collages. We showed our dances and songs at a picnic/ party on the field at the end of the week. Also, each class had a decade of the queen’s reign which we learnt about and performed in a parade in the school.

What did you do for the Jubilee?

On Friday 22nd, we held an intense debating competition finals. From logical questions to deep research, we were all on the edge of our chair when the results were out. There was Game 1 to decide 3rd place and 4th place and a just as intense battle for 1st and second place.

But there can only be one winner…

In 1st place: Attenborough!!!

Remebrance Day at St. Matthews

Today, we remember the people who sacrificed their lives to end wars, so we prayed and sang in their honor.  We also remembered all those animals that helped – the horses who carried our weapons and the dogs who kept out the rats. We made wreaths of poppies to remember the fallen.

St-Matthew’s Day! 

On the 21st of September, we celebrated St. Matthews day with fun on the field for every class from Reception to Year 6. We all had a wonderful time and for some of the younger children, it was their first time on the field. It was so lovely to all be together again after almost two years of bubbles!

 

It was really exciting to meet all the young children joining reception and was really enjoyable to be as a whole school again!
