Today at Harmony Primary, we came together to mark Remembrance Day and pay our respects to the brave men and women who have served and sacrificed their lives during times of conflict. 

Throughout school, our children took part in a range of meaningful and poignant activities, learning about the importance of courage, sacrifice, peace and remembrance.

Our act of remembrance started off with an assembly lead by Mr Topping followed by a minutes silence.

In Nursery, children created a beautiful Remembrance Day mural, watched an educational video about the First World War and took part in a special interview with a Second World War pilot.

In Foundation Stage, the children demonstrated their creativity by making beautiful poppies using tissue paper. Meanwhile, our Key Stage 1 pupils created thoughtful comic strips inspired by a short animated story, illustrating the transformation of a landscape affected by war into peaceful fields of poppies.

Our Key Stage 2 pupils painted a wonderful collection of poppies, which were brought together to create a striking cascade of remembrance in front of the Hub. This moving display serves as a powerful reminder of those who gave their lives in service.

A huge well done to all our children and staff for their creativity, effort and thoughtfulness in producing such meaningful tributes. We are incredibly proud of the respect and maturity shown by everyone throughout our Remembrance Day commemorations.

At Harmony Primary School, we remember the past, honour those who served and look towards a future filled with hope and peace.

Lest we forget. We shall remember them.
