Dear Parents/Carers

Remembrance Day - Monday 11th November 2024

We are delighted to be supporting the British Legion Poppy Appeal again this year - students and staff can show their support by purchasing poppies from Main Reception.

As a mark of respect students who are members of our Combined Cadet Force (CCF) will be permitted to wear their uniform from Tuesday 5th November through to Monday 11th November for the whole week. They will be required to wear a poppy.

Students who are members of any youth organisations (ie. Scouts or Guides) outside of Brakenhale will be permitted to wear their uniform on Monday 11th November.

We will be observing 2 minutes silence at 11:00 on Monday 11th November.

In 2024 the Royal British Legion’s Poppy Appeal will be remembering the courage of 1944. This year marks the 80th anniversaries of the momentous battles and turning points of the Second World War.
