Our Y3/4 children were invited to the cemetery on Remembrance Day to lay special poppy crosses on the war graves. We had a very peaceful afternoon, with some real reflection, thinking about the people who had given their lives in battles since the First World War.

The children also observed a two minute silence at the War memorial at the cemetery and two children were chosen to lay a special poppy wreath in memory of the fallen soldiers. We feel very privileged to have been asked again to take place in this very important day by York Cemetery.
