Remembrance Day

All nine schools within Valley Invicta Academies Trust took part in Remembrance Services this week, with some holding additional events and lessons to commemorate this important day.

The primary schools engaged in a number of activities, including assemblies, writing poems, making their own poppies and creating a wreath.

Secondary students at Valley Park School studied Paul Cummins and his ceramic poppies display at the Tower of London, and made their own clay poppies.

The other secondary schools held poignant services, with students reading poetry and observing the two-minutes silence.
