The Queen’s Green Canopy
Our Year 2 children each had the privilege of planting their own tree in Forest School, as a nationwide initiative created to mark the Platinum Jubilee.

The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee provided a perfect excuse for a party at SHPPS! The playground was festooned with Union flags for a traditional British “street party” setting and Chef Andy provided al fresco fish and chips served in newspaper, followed by Her Majesty’s favourite chocolate-and-rich-tea-biscuit cake! Apparently, she never travels without it. The children waved …
