Once again Elmwood School paid tribute to the fallen during their annual Remembrance Service which took place on Thursday 9th November. Special guests at the event were members of the Staffordshire Regiment and The Royal British Legion Riders Branch. Leading up to the event pupils had been busy making and decorating cakes/biscuits to give to our special guests. Mr Francis, DT Teacher, had also produced fabulous leather key rings in the shape of the Staffordshire Knot which were presented to our guests as a thank you for attending. Clay poppies were made by pupils with the help of Mr Collins, Art Teacher, which made a beautiful display. Parents and Carers were also invited to attend and take part in the remembrance service and a big thank you to all who came along. The behaviour and respect shown by pupils was exemplary especially during the two minutes silence; well done to all you made everyone proud. Donations of £27.50 were raised through cake sales which has been added to our poppy sales collecting box. Pupils were also given the opportunity to sit on the motorbikes at the end of the service which was very popular. Finally a big thank you to Ms Shaw, Food Technology Teacher, who made all the above possible. Further pictures are available on our photo gallery page.
