Over the past few weeks we have been learning about the queen by looking at books and the internet and having lots of discussions. This week we have celebrated her reign in lots of different ways. Have a look at some of the things we’ve been doing.

We made our bunting and chose where to hang it up in the setting.

We ate some traditional British food for snack, such as crumpets and scones with strawberries and cream.

We decorated picnic boxes and enjoyed our jubilee picnic experience.

Outdoors we used red, white, blue and purple paint to create some lovely big pieces of art.

We learned about some London bridges and made some bridges of our own, inspired by what we had seen.

The queen came to visit for a short time.

Some of us were keen to make, create and decorate crowns and became princes, princesses, kings and queens.

To complete our celebrations before the long weekend we joined the Toddlers on their “Big Toddle”. The fire engine followed us too which was VERY exciting.

And on Wednesday afternoon we welcomed our families into the setting. It was so lovely to be able to show our families around!

Happy platinum jubilee to everyone and we wish you all a great long weekend!
