The school will be commemorating our remembrance day this year on Friday 10th November 2023. The school will undertake a period of a minute's silence and reflection at 11am on this day. Following this, the Forces Club, with Mrs Howlett, will lay a wreath in our memorial garden at the front of the school.

We are inviting all children to wear their affiliated uniform on this day (Friday 10th November) if your child takes part in cadets, beavers, brownies, rainbows etc.

From tomorrow (Tuesday) until the end of the week, our School Council will be selling poppies and other RBL merchandise at break times, for the children to purchase/donate. Suggested donations include: 

Traditional Paper Poppies - 50p
Reflectors - 50p
Material zip pulls - 50p
Wristbands - £1

If your child would like to purchase any merchandise, please bring the correct money into school in a named envelope and give to your child's class teacher for safe keeping until break-time. 

The Royal British Legion have stated that this year, if your child would like a paper poppy, we are able to give them one, regardless if they have made a donation or not. However, all donations are gratefully received. 

Our children have also made an external display of poppies on our school perimeter fence as part of the Fort Brockhurst remembrance event this year.
