On Friday 27^th May, Greasby Junior School will be celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. As this is the last day of the half term, it is our usual non-uniform day with a donation of £1. However, we invite all of the pupils to come to school dressed in the colours of the Union Jack Flag: red, white and blue.

On this day, the pupils will participate in a range of activities to understand the importance of this milestone event for the Queen and country. In addition, each year group will also be focusing on a particular decade of Queen Elizabeth’s reign so far. They will be learning all about what life was like during that time: the key events, music, fashions and inventions.

At lunch time, we are holding a GJS picnic on the field so we are able to celebrate as a whole school. Each child wishing to take part will have their own paper bag to decorate for the day, and our cooks will be preparing the picnic. This will include:

• Sandwich batch (cheese, ham, tuna or vegan)
• Bag of crisps
• Fruit
• Cake
• Carton of juice (Apple or Orange) – water will also be available.

The price of this lunch is £2.20 and is to be paid in your child’s Arbor account. Please complete this brief form to indicate that your child will or will not be having a school picnic lunch so we are able to order and make the correct amount of food. If your child chooses to bring a packed lunch on the day, they will still be joining everyone on the field so we can eat, celebrate and play.
