What an exciting week it has been for New Malden with King Charles visiting our lovely community! Our lucky school council children went to the high street on Wednesday and got a front row position for when the King arrived! The King was so friendly and seemed happy to chat with the children, asking them whether they preferred maths or English at school! The children were so polite and confident and even made the King laugh!
 
Prior to the visit, school council got together to write the King a letter telling him all about our wonderful school and, what they think makes us special. When they finally met the King they handed over the letter and we are really hoping he reads it and maybe even sends a reply.
 
We are so proud of the children; they behaved so beautifully and waited for the King with patience and good humour despite the pouring rain. One of the children commented that it was his dream to meet the King and that his dream had come true! It was a wonderful afternoon all round. We feel so proud that King Charles got to see our local community and it’s diverse cultures and that our children were able to be part of the experience. We hope it will be a day they remember for years to come!
