Armistice Day

The children marked Armistice Day and 100 years since the outbreak of the First World War with a special service organised by the Open the Book Team. All the children and staff dressed in period costume and took part in the assembly which included the playing of the Last Post by one of our Year Six pupils. The classes also took part in World War One related activities throughout the day to find out more about people's real life experiences at that time.


Thanks to the generosity of the combined churches and chapels of Crickhowell, each child was presented with a replica version of the St John's Gospel as given to each soldier as they left for the front in 1914.
