Remembering Queen Elizabeth II

In June, just three months before the death of Queen Elizabeth II, childcare settings across the country marked Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee. Here we take a look back at all the photos we received from nurseries and childminders celebrating the life and reign of the Queen.

At My Playroom Childminding Service in Leicester children enjoyed a Jubilee party with lots of delicious foods and Union Jack themed party accessories.

Children from Jellybabies Nursery & Pre-school based at Longbridge Methodist Church, Birmingham drew a picture of themselves for a joint card which was sent to the Queen. They also had a jubilee party for parents, carers, grandparents, siblings and the children. The children came dressed as royalty and took part in a jubilee parade. 

Children at Gateways School in Leeds (pictured above) performed a concert for parents, waving flags and singing songs with a royal theme. They included – ‘How much is that corgi in the window’ and ‘Crowns, shoulders, knees and robes.’
