On behalf of everyone in our school… we convey our deepest condolences to the King and the Royal Family. The King's family like millions of others will mourn the loss of their mother, grandmother, great grandmother – our queen.

Elizabeth has been a constant in our lives, she served this country and the Common Wealth with respect, hard work, devotion, cooperation, resilience and honesty. She really has lived out our school values.

It is difficult to put into words how much The Queen has meant to people in this country and around the world. During her reign, Her Majesty's towering leadership and unshakable integrity have been sources of pride and inspiration for generations of people across the globe. She selflessly devoted her life to public and voluntary service while championing vitally important issues, from the preservation of wildlife and the environment to opportunities for young people.
