Remembrance Day Centenary

Date: 14th Nov 2018 @ 8:30pm

To mark this important occasion and to understand more about what Remembrance Day is, we have been finding out about the symbol we see all around us, the poppy.

We started our day looking at old photos of soldiers and then used our 100 square to try ti understand how long 100 years is. We are only 4 or 5 years old. Count to 5. That doesnt take very long does it? Try counting to 46 ( our teacher is that old!).  That took a lot longer. Imagine how long 100 years is. "WOWWWW", said William, "That's really really long, a long time"

We then created poppies and pictures using our own choice of materials before standing together holding hands to show respect for all soldiers, past and present. It was a calm and thoughtful time for us today.
