Lilly and Tamara, in Year 7, and John and Charlie in Year 11 were honoured to attend the Service of Remembrance at Ripon Cathedral on Friday. The four service students were accompanied by Mrs Potter, Headteacher, and Mr Birdsall, Service Children’s Advocate. The Cathedral was full to capacity with service children from across North Yorkshire. John was proud to be a standard bearer. A Parade Marshal from the Royal British Legion showed John how to carry the standard before he joined the parade with the Royal British Legion standard bearers.
The students were delighted to see a display of artwork which included designs created by our service students.
We will be commemorating Remembrance throughout the week with assemblies, displaying other artwork in school and culminating with the last post and two minutes’ silence on Friday.
