We held a very moving service for Remembrance this morning and every child and every person in school observed the two minutes silence. We watched the beautiful Cbbeebies Poppies film and also heard the last post from the Menin Gate.
Class 3 wrote Remembrance Prayers and Poems with Mr Caton and we chose 4 children to share theirs with us - I could have chosen the whole class they were all beautiful!

Lucy reading her prayer and all of us bowing our heads.
What was so memorable was the children's words about war and suffering but more importantly they wrote about the future and that wars like the 2 major wars must never happen again and that it was their job to ensure this when they were older.
Brought tears to my eyes.
