Going back in time on Victorian day!

Wow! What amazing outfits were worn today by all the children... and some of the adults!

A big thank you to all the creative parents who produced some great outfits, and to everyone who has provided a 'memory'. We are still interested in hearing from anyone who has a memory of Redbridge Primary, as we are collecting these together in a book.

We all really enjoyed being Victorians for the day, and especially enjoyed the Victorian school experience!

We know that there would only have been about 30 children in the school 150 years ago, whereas it felt very full today with over 200 children and lots of adults.

The Echo came and took lots of pictures, so we're hoping that there will be a nice article in the paper recording one of the last events in our old site.

Now we're looking ahead to the Christmas concerts... and to lots and lots of packing!
