Good Morning,

As you can see from the poster, we have a fantastic competition being run by Darwen Rotary Club, and we would love for the children in our school to take part.

We are inviting the children to create a gift for the Queen to celebrate her Platinum Jubilee, this is to be completed at home.
The gift can be of any style they wish. We are looking for originality and inspiration from the children. Possible ideas are a poem, a song, a model, a piece of artwork - the list goes on!
Please can all gifts be completed and brought into school ready for judging by Wednesday 11th May.

We will judge the best 10 pieces for KS1 and the best 10 for KS2 and then arrange for a Rotarian to call into school and choose the final 3 winners for each category.
There will be prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places from each Key Stage.

All the winning entries from each school will then go on display in Darwen Market Hall on the Jubilee Bank Holiday Weekend, and on Saturday 4th June, 2 overall winners (1 for KS1 and 1 for KS2) will be selected from all the 1st place entries and the winners will win a tiled mural for their school!

This is a very exciting opportunity and we would love for our children to get involved, if you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to ask.
We look forward to seeing some fantastic gifts for the Queen!
