Coronation Celebrations at Churcher’s College Junior School & Nursery

The Coronation was marked with a very special celebration at our Junior School and Nursery. 

The children wore red, white and blue outfits and joined together for a street party lunch that was not dampened by the weather!  The morning was spent off-timetable with pupils working together to prepare songs and crowns for a competition to be judged at the afternoon celebration. 

The Coronation Celebration Afternoon was an opportunity to come together as a community, eat cake, BBQ and take part in a ceilidh. 

The children were thrilled with the arrival of two ice cream vans! Each class prepared a stall to help raise funds for our school charity, to support the development of a sensory room at the Rachel Madocks School, and it was with great excitement that the children went around their stalls spending their 20ps!  

On Tuesday 9 May, we were thrilled to welcome Alan Titchmarsh. As a much-loved and well-known gardener, some Year 6 pupils had written to invite him into the school to talk about gardens and how they are important for native wildlife and combating climate change.  

From Nursery to Year 6, every pupil had the opportunity to go out and help plant bushes to create a 'Coronation Maze' in our Sensory Garden.

Alan Titchmarsh, kindly donned his wellie boots and got stuck in, as he gave pupils tips on how to plant the small privet bushes so that they would grow successfully. 

We are certain the children will have lovely memories of marking the Coronation of King Charles III at Churcher’s College Junior School & Nursery in years to come.
