Remembrance Art

11 November 2016 (by Jodie HILL (jhill))

During collective worship this week we have been thinking about what poppies represent to us.

We thought about how poppies are worn as a sign of respect and remembrance for those who have died in conflict. Then each Keystage created a different representation of a poppy which have been collected and used to create a whole school piece of Art which will be displayed in the hall. Some of the children's poppies were also used to create a St Mary's wreath which Mrs Lawrence will be taking to the cenotaph on Sunday. The maturity and thoughtfulness of the children when creating their art work was a real credit to the school and their parents.
