Our Jubilee Enrichment week, which started with our street party last Friday, continued with Coronation assemblies, chronology adventures for the past 70 years and jubilee workshops on life in the 50s as well as Victoria's jubilee in 1897. We had dance workshops for the whole school with every year group learning a different dance from a different decade. We also enjoyed the winning 5 entries of the Solefield Jubilee Pudding Competition being served for the whole school during Enrichment Week.
The judging panel (including Mrs McClure and the Holroyd Howe team) were very impressed with the creative entries and the culinary knowledge incorporated into the wonderful recipes. Thank you to all the boys who entered the competition.

"Leo was very proud and delighted with his prize and immediately used it to make some lovely coconut cookies and his brother made flapjack. It was a great book with such clear instructions that he is able to follow them all by himself!" Parent of Leo
