❤️ Remembering Together ❤️
Our whole school, from Reception to Year 6, came together for a special Remembrance Day assembly led by Mrs Eley. We were delighted to welcome grandparents of children in Years 5 and 6 to share this important occasion with us. After the assembly the grandparents enjoyed coffee and cake. Thank you to Grandma Flint for baking!
At 10:55am, the whole school gathered around our air raid shelter for a two-minute silence, opened by our Head Boy, JD, and accompanied by The Last Post, played by SB and MP. Our Head Girl, A B-H, rang the bell to end the silence, followed by The Reveille.
Year 3 laid their handmade poppy wreaths, while N B-H laid beautiful poppy artwork created by our Nursery children. Every child showed such respect, with a special mention to our youngest children for their impeccable behaviour.
A special morning of remembrance, reflection and community. ❤️

Remembrance Day Service
Our whole school, from Reception to Year 6, came together for a special Remembrance Day assembly led by Mrs Eley, helping the children to understand the significance of this important day.
We were delighted to welcome grandparents of children in Years 5 and 6 to join us for the assembly. Afterwards, our Year 6 children enjoyed serving coffee and cake to our special visitors. A huge thank you to Grandma Flint for baking the delicious cakes for everyone to enjoy!
At 10:55am, the whole school gathered around the air raid shelter, alongside the grandparents who were able to attend, ready to mark the occasion with a two minute silence at 11am.
Our Head Boy, JD, opened the silence by ringing the bell, before SB and MP played The Last Post. In the beautiful autumn sunshine, the whole school stood together in a moment of quiet reflection. Every child behaved beautifully and showed such respect. A special mention must go to our Nursery children, many as young as two years old, who demonstrated impeccable behaviour throughout.
At the end of the two minutes, our Head Girl, A B-H, rang the bell to mark the end of the silence, followed by SB and MP playing The Reveille.
Following the 2 minutes silence, Year 3 laid the beautiful poppy wreaths they had made, while N B-H laid a special piece of poppy artwork created by our Nursery children during their outdoor learning session.
It was a very special morning bringing the whole school together to pay their respects. #theforestway
