A Grand Opening

Our yurt was officially opened by Mrs Coleman, accompanied by the two oldest and two youngest members of our school. Mrs Coleman has been involved with our school for over forty years, as a class volunteer, parent , grandparent, governor and friend.

Our wonderful yurt!

April 23rd was a very exciting day at Roydon Primary School, not only because it was St George's Day and the anniversary of Shakespeare's birth (and death), but because our yurt arrived!

Many of us helped to put it up. We had to learn how to tie special knots...



and a belt!

The 'roof' is amazing.
You could hear words like 'wow', 'superb', 'amazing', 'fabulous' and 'wonderful' all around our yurt.


It was a real team effort to finish the yurt, inside and out. We hope we remember how to take it down!

There's sure to be many Roydon yurt stories to come...
