Lest we forget.
This Remembrance Day, The Maynard community came together with our friends from The Lodge Care Home to honour and remember all those who have given their lives for our freedom and futures.
Our younger students created their own poppies, and a moving Remembrance service was held at 11am. The school choirs gave heartfelt performances, then Issy (Upper 4, Year 9) and Freja (Lower 4, Year 8) played the poignant Last Post, followed by the traditional two-minute silence.
After the service, our special guest Katie from The Lodge, Head Girl Rose and Mrs Gregory laid a beautiful wreath of poppies at the feet of our Remembrance Soldier in the Rose Garden.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to today’s Remembrance Day activities. It was a truly special occasion, bringing our whole school community together to reflect, remember and pay tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
We will remember them.
