School celebrates the royal birthday with cake and Samba

BARLEY Hill Primary School, Thame, celebrated Her Majesty the Queen’s 90th birthday on Thursday, June 9, with a Street Party in glorious sunshine.

The event began with Year Four playing their brass instruments followed by the woodwind players. Each year group had been given a decade from the Queen’s reign and wore costumes from the era and performed a dance during the afternoon, as well as producing art work and relevant pieces of writing earlier in the week.

The Queen’s birthday cake was cut by the oldest and youngest boy and girl, as well as a little boy whose birthday fell the same day.

The grand finale was a whole school samba dance. A fantastic afternoon was enjoyed by all!
