Queen Elizabeth II
Queen Elizabeth was an inspiration. We will all have memories of her and her reign. We hold each other and the nation in the light at this sombre time.
Queen Elizabeth was the epitome of a life given in service, and she did so with constancy and grace.
Our schools will remain open and we are committed to supporting our children and families as we remember the Queen together. RIP Your Majesty.

The challenge: Imagine that a stranger who has had to leave their home is coming to stay with you, or with a friend or family member - for example in your grandparents' or neighbours' house. If you were to send them a postcard, to welcome them, and to show them that you have thought about them, what would you write? What would you draw? They might need to know a bit about your family or your neighbourhood? What would make them feel at home and welcomed?
To enter: Send your postcard (it can be a bought postcard with your own writing on it, or a postcard that you have drawn or made) to: Suitcase Competition, SEAMAT, c/o Rayleigh Primary, Love Lane, Rayleigh, Essex. SS6 7DD
Younger children: drawings are absolutely fine. If you look at the book you might get some ideas about a picture that would make someone feel welcome.
Entries need to be received by Tuesday 19th April, 2022.
Prizes will include books, stationery and an invitation to a special event with Trustees.

If you would like to enter as an adult and send your entry in directly you can email the image to info@seamat.org using 'Let there be light' as the subject heading, or send it to Rayleigh Primary marked 'Let there be light'.
