- Jubilee Debating Competition at Jafar Hall, Eton College on Tuesday, 2.30 to 5pm, where teams from a number of schools debate 2 issues, one pre-prepared relating to views on the best monarchs and one announced on the day on a topic of the day. A cup will be presented to the winning team.
- The Big Sing at the Windsor Boys School at 3pm. A chance for children from all the schools across Windsor to come together to sing the Jubilee Schools’ Song together. Parents welcome to come along and enjoy this special celebration of the Jubilee. The special Jubilee song is aptly called ‘The Long Walk’, referencing the long 70 years of The Queen’s reign. It was created at a workshop at Windsor Castle, where Emily Barden (@bardenmusic) worked with a team of local school children on lyrics and music that reflected their views of The Queen and her reign.
