On Sunday
11th of November we had a Remembrance service. It was special, because
it fell on a Sunday. We sang a hymn, and Charlie Mayne read a poem
he and Mr. Taylor had chosen. Mr Taylor also told us about two men, who
were in a Prisoner of War camp, and how they helped each other through.
We then went outisde, all of us with our poppies and had the Ashdown
Role of Honour. It was dedicated to those boys that had been at
Ashdown who had been killed in the two World Wars. William St
John also played Highland Cathedral on the bagpipes. We stood at
the front of the school when the gun marked the beginning of the two
minute silence. Miss Flic played the Last Post on the trumpet, which was
a piece during the war which would wake the soldiers up. The gun then
went again, the end of the two minutes. Miss Flic played Reveille.
It was a good day. |
