Today, a group of ten students from The English Martyrs Catholic School and Sixth Form College proudly took part in the local Remembrance Sunday Headland Parade, joining members of the community in honouring those who have served and sacrificed for their country.
During the moving service, prayers were said, hymns were sung and a two-minute silence was observed as attendees paused to remember the courage and dedication of the Armed Forces past and present. The ceremony also included the poignant playing of The Last Post, providing a moment for reflection and remembrance.
Our students represented the school with exceptional maturity, respect and dignity throughout the occasion. Their conduct reflected the values of our school community and demonstrated a deep appreciation for the importance of remembering those who gave so much in service to others.
We are incredibly proud of all ten students who took part and thank them for representing EMS so wonderfully. Their thoughtful participation helped ensure that this important act of remembrance was marked with the respect and reverence it deserves.
Lest we forget.
