Remembering Together to Build Peace

As part of the Remembrance Day commemoration, pupils from across the elementary school gathered for a special assembly dedicated to remembrance, peace and reflection.

After performing a song prepared with Mrs Fautley and Mahya, our CM1 and CM2 pupils read letters written by French soldiers during the First World War.

As a bilingual school, we also explored two important symbols of remembrance: the French Bleuet de France (cornflower) and the British poppy. Although different, both flowers carry the same message of remembrance, gratitude and hope.

For our Cycle 3 pupils, the ceremony concluded with a minute of silence, reminding us all of the importance of peace, solidarity and respect for others.

A special thank you to our pupil readers and to all staff members who contributed to this meaningful moment of remembrance and citizenship.
