Students reflect during Remembrance Day Live Assembly
Students had the opportunity to reflect on all those whose lives have been affected by conflict
Yesterday, our students joined schools from across the country to take part in the Great Big Live Assembly for Remembrance Day 2026, watching the broadcast during morning registration.
The assembly gave students the opportunity to pause and reflect on all those whose lives have been affected by conflict. Through personal stories, historical accounts and thoughtful discussion, students were encouraged to consider the importance of remembrance and why it continues to matter today.
Students learned about the meaning behind the poppy, the experiences of servicemen and women, and the impact that war has had on communities both in the UK and around the world. The assembly also focused on values such as courage, service, compassion and hope, helping students make connections between the past and the present.
Remembrance Day is an important moment in the school year, giving us all a chance to stop, reflect and remember those who gave so much for others.
