Carrington Remembers
Monday 11th November, 2024
This morning, the children and staff from Carrington Junior School gathered for a beautiful Remembrance Assembly, where we took some time to reflect and remember those who fought for our Freedom.
The Choir was joined by Mrs Dean at the piano and they gave us a beautiful performance of ‘In Flander's Fields'. We then all observed a 2-minute silence, and Mr Reid played ‘The Last Post’ on his trombone.
The Year 6 pupils have been working on WWI poetry this term, and some of them read their thought provoking poem to us all.
Each child in the school wrote a significant memory that they hold dear inside a hand print, and each class created their Memory Wreath with their combined memories.
In classes, some children watched the BBC animation ‘Poppies’ while others looked at Newsround resources linked to remembrance.
