Remembrance takes many forms and means something different to everyone. Ahead of Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday this weekend, members of our RAF community have been sharing with us what Remembrance and the poppy means to them.

The Butterfly children have created some beautiful artwork to support their learning about Armistice Day.
Talking to young children about Remembrance Day teaches them about the significance of history and the importance of cherishing peace. It is an opportunity to educate and inspire, to foster a sense of gratitude, empathy, and respect for those who served and continue to serve.
