This year Remembrance Day fell on a Saturday. Usually Cobalt Class join with the local community at the War Memorial in Exton, but this year an open invitation was shared for families to come and join with the community, as it was a Saturday.

 

A number of families joined Mrs Davis, Mrs Larratt, Mrs Almond and Mrs Hodges at the War Memorial. A huge thank you to those who came in their school uniforms to represent the school. Mrs Davis shared some of the poems that Year 5 and 6 had written in response to discussions around pictures of poppies and war graves, and one of our year 5 children laid a poppy posy on behalf of the school. 

 

It was lovely to be able to join in with this village event and to stand alongside veterans and others remembering those who have fought and died in warfare.
