Remembrance Day

Remembrance Day Ceremony was definitely different this year. With COVID rules still in place, it was quite hard for us to get together. Normally all classes would come into the courtyard with the school leaders standing on the stage; commemorating those who let us live a peaceful life we are currently in. We would have the choir singing Flanders Field, a musician playing the bugle and the students listening serenely. This time we had to watch it live through Zoom. Although this was done online, we still felt connected as a school, particularly during the Last Post. It was a time to reflect and remember those who served our country. 

They shall grow not old

As we that are left grow old

Age shall not weary them

Nor the years condemn

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.
