Year 1 have been learning about British Monarchs like Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth II in history. We learned about their families and lives while on the throne. We discussed that a way people celebrate royal events like jubilees and coronations is by having a street party. Yesterday we had our own tea party to show what this is like. We wrote invitations to invite our families and friends to the tea party and made amazing crowns to wear. In literacy, we have also been reading the Queen's Hat and wrote our own story, The King's Hat, imagining that the King came to Mead to join in with our tea party. Luckily, the sun came out and we all had such a fun afternoon.
Thank you to all the families that came and brought delicious treats!
