Today, the Sutton Valence School community gathered on Prefects’ Lawn to mark Remembrance Day in a moving act of reflection and remembrance.
Led by the Headmaster, Head of Senior School, the Chaplain, Heads of School and senior cadets from the Army, Navy and RAF sections of the Combined Cadet Force (CCF), pupils and staff came together to honour those who have served and sacrificed in conflicts past and present.
Following the sounding of the Last Post, the School observed the national two-minute silence. The impeccably observed silence provided an opportunity for the entire community to reflect on the courage, service and sacrifice of members of the Armed Forces and all those affected by conflict.
The ceremony was a poignant reminder of the importance of remembrance and the values of respect, gratitude and service that continue to unite the School community.
We will remember them.
