Remembrance Day and Poppy Appeal
Sheldon School will be marking Remembrance Day on Wednesday 11 November with our annual Remembrance Day Ceremony. This event includes readings by our Head Students and Sixth Form Presidents and performance of the Last Post by our Sheldon Musicians. A moment of silence will be observed throughout the school at 11:11am.
On Remembrance Day, students involved in Cadets, Scouts or Guides are allowed to wear their group uniforms rather than the Sheldon uniform. They are also allowed to attend the ceremony after registering with their Lesson 3 class.
Over the next week, students will learn more about Remembrance Day through tutor work and assemblies. Year 7 students will also be making poppies for our display in the Quad. Prefects and Sixth Formers have begun visiting tutor groups to sell poppies and other merchandise to raise money for the Royal British Legion. These can also be purchased at Reception before or after school.
