Remembrance Day – Pray for Peace
This year, as every year, we mark Remembrance Day as a school community.
This year, our school focus for Remembrance Day has been on the enduring symbol of the poppy and the need for peace in the world.
With so many conflicts across the globe currently, every form was given a peace dove template and composed a prayer for peace or reflected on what peace means to them.
One student, Ava in Y10 wrote a beautiful poem about the need for peace…
Keep that conflict in a cage
turn life, a chapter, a whole new page
for those who have fallen fighting for rights
and to those who have witnessed inhuman sights
violence doesn’t cancel out violence they say
So why does life have to be this way?
Being there for each other is all we need
so in saying this I do plead
support others and treat them well
it’s about time we break out this shell
choose equality and kindness but most importantly
PEACE!
For all those in war torn countries or suffering… St Julie pray for them, protect them and bless them.
