Coronation Tea Party

We enjoyed a wonderful Tea Party to celebrate the Coronation of King Charles III. We had an amazing spread of party food, which everybody thoroughly enjoyed. A big well done to our 3 Bake Off winners: Wilf's amazing coronation cupcakes, Poppy's Union Jack cake and Fred's fabulous crown cake. All the entries were wonderful and our judges had a hard time choosing just 3 winners. Lots of happy faces, lots of full tummies and lots of fun with friends.

Sunburst & Moonbeam 2 Coronation Crowns

As part of the Coronation celebrations, Sunburst and Moonbeam 2 designed and made crowns for the new King. The Rushall residents had a celebration tea at the community centre on Sunday and the crowns formed part of the display. Both classes took a walk over to the community centre on Tuesday afternoon, where they met members of the community, including Marion Harvey - a former head of Rushall school. Mrs Harvey had made a beautiful display of all the crowns and they were joined by a special appearance of the King and Queen! The children talked about the process of making the crowns and then were treated to a glass of squash and a biscuit. Mrs Harvey said: “The crowns were a great success and delighted so many members of the community, so thank you for making so many people smile”.

Learning comes alive at Rushall (Term 4)

There are always plenty of things going on in our school. From being part of the local netball league, learning about Bible stories from our friends at Open The Book, fun in the snow, trips out and about to places like Stonehenge to Rushall sharing its big heart raising money for books for children who spend long periods in hospital. Learning always comes alive at Rushall.
