Queen at 90: Are your schools celebrating?

My kids are wearing red, white and blue at school tomorrow and having a day of royalty related activities :rotfl:

What are yours doing? Or is it an ordinary day for yours?
Could you do with a Money Makeover?

    Neither school has indicated that they are celebrating. However, we're hoping to have a garden party on the Queen's official birthday in June, with Rainbows, Brownies and Guides.

    We're having a 'Monarchy Day' on Friday. Dressing up and afternoon tea.

    Yes, they're having a monarchy day and they are going to learn about other monarchs in other countries who have served for a long time.

    They are wearing red, white and blue. Also the kitchen is making a cake for each class.

    Nicola who?

    If you mean Nicola Sturgeon I'm sure in a former life she was Mary Queen of Scots!

    And some others that are probably well beyond the faq!

    Personally, I'm appalled at the idea of anyone wearing anything other than blue and white or black on my birthday!

    :p

    Schools in our area are still on half term.
