Tea and cake, Ma’am?

St Andrew’s pulled out all the stops (and bunting) to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee last week.  The whole school joined together for a very special tea party with cake, jelly, ice cream and of course tea and scones for the parents.  Despite the rather dull weather, all were entertained by the jazz band from the Grand Hotel and everyone joined together to sing not just one but two verses of the National Anthem.
 
Earlier in the day, to mark this momentous occasion, the Pre-Prep department buried a ‘time capsule’ in the gardens of the school.  They filled the capsule with poems, stories and pictures and will dig it up in five years time when the oldest Pre-Prep children leave the school.  A  Jubilee rose was planted next to the capsule to mark the spot.
