Remembering the Fallen

12.11.2026

The school community at Junior House came together yesterday for our annual act of remembrance.

Following playtime, children gathered in quiet reflection, demonstrating remarkable maturity and respect. The solemnity of the occasion was beautifully captured as Mrs Honiball read Laurence Binyon’s ‘For the Fallen’, her words resonating across the assembled children.  The ceremony continued with Mr Honiball’s stirring rendition of ‘The Last Post’ on his cornet, the haunting notes filling the air and marking the beginning of our minute of silence. During this time, every child stood in silent tribute, honouring those who have fallen in service to our country.  The commemoration concluded with the uplifting notes of the ‘Reveille’, symbolising hope and remembrance.

We are immensely proud of how our children conducted themselves throughout this important occasion, showing respect and understanding of the significance of Remembrance Day.
