Face Britain
All children recently completed a self portrait which was submitted into the national Face Britain project. The portraits will be used to make a montage of the Queen which will be projected onto screens in City centres across the country as part of the Jubilee and Olympic celebrations.
Here is a link to the Face Britain site where you can view your child’s portrait. A letter with instructions on how to log-in to the site will be given out on Friday.
