Today, Year 5 have been learning about remembrance. We found out the significance of the date and time and why we wear poppies. They enjoyed recording their own versions of ‘In Flanders Fields’. @PoppyLegion

A few weeks back we met Niel and Kim. Niel served overseas with the 1st Royal Welsh Fusiliers. When he was discharged, the young family fell on hard times and the RBL came to their aid, helping them back on their feet. Kim made 300 poppies and this beautiful Lest We Forget Banner
