Today, students and staff came together to observe a two-minute silence in honour of Remembrance Day, taking time to reflect on the sacrifices made by members of the Armed Forces, past and present.
The school community showed its respect during this poignant moment of reflection. We were particularly proud to see a number of students wear their military uniforms, representing their involvement in cadet and military organisations and demonstrating their commitment to service and remembrance.
Our remembrance activities also extended beyond the school gates. On Sunday 8th November, members of our local community gathered for the annual Remembrance Ceremony. We were honoured to be represented by Head Boy Olly West and Head Girl Amelia Miller, who took part in the service and laid a wreath on behalf of the school as a mark of respect for those who have served and sacrificed for our country.
We are incredibly proud of Olly and Amelia for representing the school with such maturity and dignity, and of all our students who joined us in remembering and honouring those who gave so much for the freedoms we enjoy today.
“At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.”
