On Friday 9th November 2018 our community will come together to mark the centenary of Armistice Day. This has become an important tradition at St John Fisher to mark this event appropriately and for children to learn about it in the days leading up to it.
Our service will start at 10.50am at Our Lady Lourdes Catholic Church and will incorporate a minute’s silence in honour of both the fallen and all those who love(d) them.
As it is the centenary we would like to make it even more special…
If you, a relative or someone you know is a serving or retired member of the armed services and could play a small part in our service (placing a wreath at the foot of a cross), please let us know.
Also we are looking for serving and/or retired service personnel who would be willing to visit school in order to speak to the children about why Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday is so important to them. Again if you can help, please get in touch.
Finally if you know someone who would like to just come along and join us for our service, please bring them along! They would be most welcome to this special community event.
