Year 5 Pupils Deliver their Remembrance Assembly with Pride

Y5 delivered the Remembrance assembly on Tuesday with incredible respect and pride. Each class performed a war poem. Some pupils from each class then shared memories of family members who had served in either of the World Wars or in more recent conflicts. The assembly ended with the words of Laurence Binyon:

 “They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: 

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.”
