On Monday this week across St Peter’s we paused to mark Remembrance Day. Children respectfully observed a period of silence to remember and give thanks for all those who serve to keep us safe. Different classes remembered in different ways through discussion and different pieces of work.
Here are some remembrance day pieces of art from Herons class.
“Herons class were interested to listen the poem In Flanders Field by John McCrae during their learning about Remembrance Day on Monday. They learnt about World War I and thought about how scary it must have been to have to go war. We held our 2 minutes silence, thinking about all the soldiers who died during the World Wars, but also thinking about people who are still at war today, living in fear, and modern soldiers who still risk their lives to help others. We then looked at silhouette art and created our own from tissue paper and black paper. Well done for creating these poignant images Herons class, and for your thoughtful responses to our learning!”
