West Lynn Primary School

Coronation crowns and croquet for Lynn pupils

Croquet and a treasure hunt for ‘royal jewels’ were just two of the regal activities on offer when our school celebrated the Coronation.

The children also enjoyed a ‘street party’, a photo booth and a variety of themed games.

There was also a grand parade around the school’s field, where the pupils were able to display the crowns that they had created to commemorate the occasion.

Charlie Howells, Assistant Head at the school, said: “Celebrating the King’s Coronation is important at West Lynn Primary, because the monarchy is a key role in our country.

“The children thoroughly enjoyed celebrating the Queen’s Jubilee last year, and wanted to celebrate the King’s Coronation.”

Other West Norfolk Academy Trust schools joined us in celebrating the Coronation of King Charles III.

At St Clement’s High a time capsule was created which included recordings of students talking about their lives to add a personal touch to the historic event.

Smithdon students recreated the King’s official cypher on the school playing field using their uniform to provide the red, white and blue for an image captured by a drone.

Snettisham Primary had a street party and created crowns and pupils at Clenchwarton chose a Commonwealth country to study as part of the celebration - which also included a picnic.

Walpole Cross Keys pupils got creative and designed collages and stamps with a royal theme.
