Remembrance Sunday

Date: 5th Nov 2018 @ 9:29am

Remembrance Sunday, which falls on 11 November in 2018, is a day for the nation to remember and honour those who have sacrificed themselves to secure and protect our freedom. It marks the day World War One ended, at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month, in 1918.

Year 4 have been learning a lot about Remembrance Sunday and the importance of celebrating such an event. In a class discussion we decided that we would like to make our own poppies to either add to a display or to take home. To do this we are going to need plastic bottles bringing in. Thank you already to the children who have remembered to bring their plastic bottle in and to the children who have brought in an extra bottle for their friends. The idea is to recycle our plastic bottles and use the bottom of them to make beautiful poppies.
