Variety Bash In Term 1,
2000, our school was informed that we had been chosen as one
of the only schools in New South Wales that the Queen of
England would be visiting on March 22nd. We spent the next
few weeks preparing for her visit. The students already knew
a little about the monarchy, but over the next few weeks
they learnt a lot more. We had several television crews come
to our school weeks before the Queen was there.
We
started off the day by having a whole school assembly. Our
Principal, Mr Paul Loxley addressed the school and told the
students what would be happening for the day. While
the Queen was being greeted at the front entrance by our
school captains, students in our Computer Lab were working
hard on their slide shows.
Mr
Loxley gave Her Majesty the grand tour of our school,
including the Computer Lab, a Stage 2 Classroom and the
Aboriginal Room.
Some
of the visitors that came with the Queen included: NSW
Premier Mr Bob Carr and his wife, Dubbo District
Superintendent Ms Robin McKerihan, Ladies in Waiting, Police
Detectives, Bodyguards etc.
After
the entourage had toured the school the Queen was presented
with a hand carved emu egg in front of the students and
guests.
As
the Queen left our school the students waved their
Australian flags.
Our
school captains were beseiged by the media after the vist by
the Queen. All in all a very exciting day!!
