Friday 10th June.
WOW!! 
The day started with the children coming to school in red, white or blue. They all looked amazing.We talked about the 70 years that the Queen has ruled the Monarchy and how how the world has changed. From technology, food, clothes, the way we live and welcoming people from all around the world. The children discussed how life would be if they did not have internet or televisions in their home. We looked and the postives and negatives of these and understood that even though we are very privilged to live the way we live, we need to look after people around us to make sure that they feel connected. Remember manners dose not cost anything and a smile goes along way.
Happy 70th Queens Platiumn Jubilee to everyone.

The lyrics are below.
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive
You change your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger
Hanging tough, staying hungry
They stack the odds 'til we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not going to stop
Just a man and his will to survive
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
