Poppy Appeal/ Remembrance Day 2024

Again this year we have been supporting the Poppy Appeal. This year, the Royal British Legion, have sent their usual paper poppies into school for us to sell. They have sent us poppies to help those wounded in service to our country & their families. Thank you to all the pupils and families who have Supporting your children to fundraise for this years Poppy Appeal- the collection pot is almost full and we have had to ask for more stock of the snap bracelet rulers!
During these hard times, your generosity is amazing. 

On Friday 8th November 2024, our Year 6 pupils went to pay their respects to all those who sacrificed their lives fighting for our country so we can live as we do today. Mrs Abela and Mr Nield took the class to Abbey Hey cenotaph where they looked at the names of local people who had died. Prayers were read and poppy symbols were also left to show our respect and gratitude.

They showed great respect and empathy – Well done Year 6!

     
 
In lower school, the pupils learnt about remembrance day. Reception made poppies in their art time and Year 2 created art work using poppies. Year 2 have also been writing about poppies and soldiers during ww1!
