On Wednesday 11 November, St Matthew’s will mark Remembrance Day with three special assemblies. Mrs Bardon will lead the assembly for Years 1 and 2, Mrs Rayner for Years 3 and 5, and Mr Parker for Years 4 and 6. These will provide an opportunity for children to reflect on remembrance and honour those who have lost their lives in conflict.
At 11am, we will join people across the country in observing the national two-minute silence. Our Year 6 classes will gather around the tree at the front of the school, weather permitting, where the bottle poppies we created in 2024 will be displayed once again.
