Posted on - 14 Nov 2018To mark the final year of the World War One centenary, The Royal British Legion has produced Silent Silhouettes. A variety of near life-size silhouettes of soldiers from across the commonwealth, RAF/RFC and Navy; munition factory workers; suffragettes and those who gave medical support, to symbolise the communities that took part in WW1. KES made a donation for one of the statues and it has been installed in the school grounds. Surrounding the statue is a sea of handmade poppies that were made by the Technology department. These poppies were sold to students for a donation to the Royal British Legion prior to being placed in the ground. On Monday 12 November, students that are a cadet in the armed forces were encouraged to attend school in their cadet uniforms as a mark of respect. These students and veterans from the local community were then invited to a remembrance service. The school’s Deputy Head Boy, Edward, and Head Girl, Keeley, gave readings whilst the veterans placed their own poppies in the ground by the statue.View on Facebook
