Remembrance at Rookwood

Pupils, staff and parents gathered today to mark Remembrance Day with a thoughtful and moving service. The school community observed two minutes’ silence to remember all those who have served in conflict. 

The occasion provided an opportunity for the school community to come together in remembrance, reflecting on the sacrifices made by servicemen and women and those who have had their lives affected by war. The service was accompanied by a beautiful rendition of ‘In Flanders Fields’, performed by three of our Music Scholars, Annabelle, Jessica and Ayla.

Outside the front of the school, a beautiful poppy display created by Mrs Faill has served as a poignant reminder of the significance of Remembrance Day.
