Oystermouth School Jubilee

Ok, ok, ok this is the third Jubilee blog in a row, but this one was so much fun too! This Jubilee celebration was at Oystermouth School in Mumbles, Swansea. As well as having good fun they were also raising money for their Infant's playground.

It was an awesome sunny day with Union Jack bunting and flags everywhere. I'm particularly loving Meagan's outfit and cake above. I'm wondering now, how much cake have you all eaten in the last few weeks! 

Hey wait, who is that! A big thanks for making a special appearance Elizabeth!

She did so well getting around the country!

Red. white and blue balloons.

Loved the red deck-chairs!

OOOh look who bought all their cake stands with them for the cake stall!

This time we went pretty melamine!

These cakes were such tasty cakes!

Red, white and blue fancy dress costumes for sale.

Nurse costume and blue sky.

Oh my word, the most awesome Pimms ever!

The lovely coconut shy.

Ooooh pick your own moustache stall! I'm sure this was the most popular event of the day!

You had to walk through this old wardrobe to experience all the games in this designated area! It was brilliant fun.

OOOh look how many ducks I've caught!

Doesn't this look a little like the Olympic rings?

It was a really lovely and successful Jubilee school fete.

There were many more photos but I'm sure you have all had enough by now!

Take care for now, 

Until the next Royal Wedding!

Jubilee Street Party

We went to a fab Jubilee Street Party in Mumbles this week. The weather has been a bit wet recently but that cheeky rain didn't dampen our spirits! It was great that the rain held off until the eating and the games had finished. It was a busy and fun event with an awesome atmosphere. The Union Jack bunting came out once again as well as  all those colourful flags.

There was a sea of red, white and blue attire for the afternoon!

This outfit worn by Bertie was so my favourite!

A few Royal visitors managed to make it.

Hello there Phil!

Ahhh this lovely lady was giving out these.

Hope you are all well.

I think I may have a few hundred more photos of more Jubilee events, bet you can't wait!

Take care for now.

Vintage Jubilee Party,

We were lucky enough to join up with Ffynone House School in Swansea last week for their Vintage Jubilee tea party and sports day. It was fortunate that it was a beautiful sunny day to hold a tea party.

It was a packed event with students and parents as well as the local radio station. It was amazing to see that the whole school got involved, from all the staff to the parents too. Even the students on study leave came back to celebrate the Jubilee for the day.

 The visiting Radio team are cycling from Paris to Swansea this summer in aid of Maggie's. Ffynone School also support Maggie's Cancer Care. So it was a good joint effort to raise over £250 for this worthy cause. Check out the link to read more about them.

They are amazing:-)

Really cute Union Jack cup cakes.

 Also we were lucky enough to work with Watering Can Media on a cool time lapse photography project, which involved over 1600 photographs during the Jubilee party.

                                    

An awesome day with a beautiful school.

Hope you had a great Jubilee Weekend!
