  Thu 25 May 2023

  We have had an action packed last week of this half term! From Year 3 children enjoying a dance workshop and tour of Buntingford to children in the Early Years meeting and finding out about a range of animals, including a noisy donkey and chatting chicks!

   

  The half term came to end with our Half Term Award Assemblies for Millfield children. These are wonderful opportunities where positive learning behaviours are celebrated. Children are naturally so reflective; during our assemblies, it was a delight to listen to children sharing their learning and explaining why they are feeling proud of themselves.

   

  Have a lovely half term break, we look forward to children returning to Millfield on Monday 5^th June 2023.

• Millfield's Coronation Celebrations

  Fri 05 May 2023

  Millfield Coronation Celebrations were a real success despite downpours of rain! Millfield Hall was transformed into Westminster Abbey where we crowned our very own King and Queen of Millfield.

   

   

  Millfield children and staff looked fantastic wearing their crowns and waving flags and we even managed to have our planned playground party between the showers. There were fun and games that could be heard across the whole school.

   

  During our assembly today we focussed on King Charles’ life. At the end of the assembly, each child was gifted a special Coronation Medal from Millfield School as a keepsake. Last week, Millfield School Council worked together to create a card and write a letter to King Charles to mark this occasion; within the card we included a Millfield Coronation Medal for him to also keep as a keepsake.

   

  Buntingford Town Council kindly gifted a commemorative badge to every child at Millfield to celebrate the Coronation of King Charles. The Buntingford Mayor visited us at Millfield on Wednesday to deliver these lovely gifts. The badges were presented to children, along with Millfield’s keepsake during our afternoon assembly.

   

  Staff at Millfield wish you all a very enjoyable Bank Holiday weekend with your family and friends.
