This year at JPGS we were very fortunate to have our
Grammar School pupils at school and visitors were able
to attend our special assembly. This allowed us to com-
memorate the occasion with respect to remember those
fallen heroes who fought hard to help shape the future.
It was a morning where we all came to-gether as a school
and community.

Our Remembrance Day Assembly took place in the
Sports Hall and a link was also shared with the Prep
School pupils and families to join from home.

This occasion means a lot to our school and communi-
ty and therefore we had many items from various voic-
es. We had many speeches from staff and pupils and a
very special guest – Lt. Col. John Russell from the British
Army who was able to share his thoughts and experi-
ences.

Poppies were decorated by our wonderful pupils and
displayed around our school. Furthermore, within our
PSHE lessons our pupils learned the signifi-cance of Re-
membrance Day and why it is an occasion to reflect and
wear the poppies with pride.
