The Queen's Platinum Jubilee
Sun 29 May 2022On Wednesday this week, we plan to celebrate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee in style!
Children, and staff, may come into school on this day, dressed in their finery, to enjoy a 'Jubilee Picnic Break' outdoors (weather permitting of course!).
As always, when we hold a non-uniform event, we encourage the children to wear things they already have, and in this case that could be a princess dress, wedding or party outfit they may have, or an outfit of their own choosing, but please don't buy anything especially.
If the children can bring a cushion or blanket with them on the day, they can sit on this outside, where music will be playing and fun will be had.
You may wish to send an extra, or special break with you child on this day as part of their celebrations.
No donations are being asked for this event.
Many thanks indeed for all of your support, as we look forward to making this day a special occasion for the children to enjoy, before we finish school for the long weekend.
School will finish for the children at their usual time on Wednesday 1st June, and will resume on Monday 6th June.
Many thanks,
The Brooklands Team

BELFAST BLITZ MUSEUM VISIT
Tue 17 May 2022The P7 classes have all visited the Belfast Blitz Museum this week. The pupils were given a really interesting 'talk' from Ruth and were able to answer and ask lots of questions! A great day out was had! It was very interesting but also quite sad - over 1000 people from Belfast died. Thanks to Alan and David for coming with us from Dundonald PSNI.
