Platinum Jubilee School Ideas - For All Ages

This year, HM Queen Elizabeth II, will become the first British Monarch to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee, marking 70 years of service. If you’re looking for Platinum Jubilee School Ideas, look no further. We have pulled together a whole host of options for celebrating, from official initiatives and local events, to competitions and commemorative gifts.

Whatever your jubilee plans, whatever age you are, have fun and get involved!

Platinum Jubilee School Ideas from Nursery Upwards

Ages 3 to 7 years old: A Crown Competition

Using our Platinum Jubilee Crown Hats you can entertain the children for hours! We have our excellent Jubilee design on one side of the crown print, whilst the reverse is stencilled for decoration. This design is exclusive to Running Imp and allows all ages and abilities to become involved in something fun!

Why not reward pupils with medals and commemorative coins as a token of their participation in this monumental occasion. 

Ages 8 to 11 years old: A Jubilee Trail 

Create a trail guided by flags and paved with memorabilia at every turn! Allow for the discovery of fun royal facts, too, and make it more than just a trail, with wristbands, bottles, tote bags and educational pens to find!

The jubilee trail presents a unique opportunity and a whole lot of educational fun for everyone involved! 

Ages 12 to 16 years old: Poetry Competition 

Not everyone may love poetry, and not everyone may be a royalist, but we can think of a few good reasons that make us proud to be British! Put it into a poem, and let the prizes be anything from rosettes for runners up and bookmarks, keyrings and button badges for first place! 

ALL AGES! 

Great British Sports Day: Not only does a traditional sports day present the sense of community we have missed due to lockdowns, but it is also an opportunity for pupils, teachers and carers to feel connected. Nothing says community like an egg and spoon race…

Platinum Jubilee Picnic: A great picnic requires only three quality ingredients; hungry guests, tasty food in party boxes and the school field. Let Running Imp simplify things for you with paper plates, cups, napkins, party boxes, cocktail sticks and bunting.

Party on the playground: Break out the bunting, get the music on and hold a street-party style celebration on the playground. 

Bake sale: Keeping things tidy with some Platinum Jubilee tea towels, put your baking skills to the test! Not only is this a fantastic way to have some fun, but you can also fundraise too.
