Jolly Jubilee and Fantastic Flotilla celebrations

We have been learning all about the Diamond Jubilee in Foundation.  We learnt how the Queen became queen and some of the things she has done during her reign.  We have spent the week designing and making crowns, looking at old photos and talking about what we would do if we were Queen for a day. 
We then found out about how the Diamond Jubilee would be celebrated.  We found out that there was going to be a Flotilla of over a thousand boats on the River Thames.  We really liked this idea so we researched it a bit more.  We found the Queen was having a special royal Barge made.  We decided to make a royal barge ourselves outside.  We even thought about how we could keep the queen dry if it rained. 
We also made boats out of clay.  We found the boats were going to Tower Bridge so we made this too.  It even lifts up so the boats can go under.
