We have participated in the QGC here at Collingham and we have planted a Ginkgo Biloba tree to mark the occasion.
In order to create a legacy to the Queen and to honour her leadership of the nation, a unique tree-planting initiative – the Queen’s Green Canopy (QGC) - was created where people from across the United Kingdom were invited to ‘Plant a Tree for the Jubilee’. She is the first to do so, but she will almost certainly be the last - and therefore only British monarch - ever to mark a Platinum Jubilee. There will be wide-ranging opinion about the Royal Family however, as a Church of England school, it is important to recognise the historic achievement of the Queen achieving 70 years on the throne. The children had a fantastic day and learnt a lot during lessons about the Queen’s life and her service to the country since a very young age. The children also took part in a ‘Jubilee Hunt’ around school to locate different images relating to the Queen and the wider Royal Family had a picnic at lunchtime and attended a whole school tree planting ceremony in the garden.
On Tuesday, we celebrated the Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II with a non-uniform day of red, white and blue. I am delighted that we can all now sleep easy have big smiles on our faces and look forward to renewed rivalries in the top flight of English football again next season! The blue and white day for my birthday highlighted my allegiances to those who were previously unaware and this created some good natured banter between one and all. It has to be mentioned how emotions have been running high for footballing reasons over the past month with the many Leeds United fans in school - and a handful of Evertonians - suffering the agonies of potential relegation from the Premier League. Don't forget the parents' race - there is still time for some last minute training next week! We have everything crossed for good weather as we hope to see as many of you as possible on the school field to support the children in their events. It's during this half-term that we are all looking forward to our first Sports Day in three years on Wednesday 8th June. We will return to school on Monday 6th June to enjoy our final seven weeks of the 2021/22 academic year.

You should have a look at some of our photos in the Photo Gallery.Unbelievably, we break up for half-term today after a busy six weeks full of Easter services KS1 and KS2 SATs school trips parent events the Platinum Jubilee and even 40th birthday celebrations for some! I honestly don't know where the time has gone.
We continued in the minibus to Inverness where we enjoyed a KFC and then went home to Wick. It really was a trip of a lifetime and we all enjoyed it very much! The next day we travelled back to Milan and then to Edinburgh. We got to go to a stand to buy scarves and tops and after the match we went to the official shop. After lunch we got to go to the Parma vs Lazio match. We got a trophy from them and then we had a great lunch at the club house. We played games against Colorno and the Junior Football Club. The next day we went to the ACD Colorno club and played in a tournament. On Saturday morning at 5 o'clock we flew to Milan airport and travelled by bus to Parma.There we trained at the ACD Colorno pitch, then after we got a tour of Parma we went to a pizzeria. The trip to Parma was really fun! We first went to Edinburgh in the minibus and stayed the night in a Premier Inn beside the airport. Here is an account of the trip by our goalkeeper Robbie Gunn. This was made possible as we collected the most vouchers in The Daily Record 'Kits for Kids' competition. Here are the very lucky 13 boys who recently travelled to Parma in Italy to compete in a football tournament.
