We are extremely proud of all our students who took part in ceremonies and parades with the school and in the local community, honouring those who served and sacrificed.
On Sunday 8th November, some students proudly took part in the Whittlesey Remembrance parade.
On 11/11/25 students took part in a remembrance parade at the college.
Students wore their cadet force uniforms, and represented the Royal Navy, British Army, Royal Air Force and the scouts as the school fell silent to mark the moment that, in 1918, the guns fell silent on the Western Front.
The contingent paraded into position at the front of the school, ready for the formal act of remembrance at 11:00. This was announced by a pupil playing the last post on the bugle, and formally ended with Reville at 11:02.
A wreath was laid on behalf of the school by Miss. Wahlandt to bring the formal procedures to a conclusion.
This year further marks the 80 Anniversary of the end of the Second World War, making this Armistice Day doubly poignant, as those who remember first hand cross the bar to calmer waters. Our students’ involvement in these events keep the memories alive for future generations to honour and learn from.
Lt(SCC) John Ashworth RNR said of the parade;
“Our students have once again done themselves, their organisations and their parent services proud. Remembering the fallen is a vital mark of respect for our communities – and often far more important for those who have lost a parent, sibling or child to conflict to remind them that in that moment, that they are not alone. I was proud to be able to stand with them and share that moment”.
