Remembrance Sunday Service to mark the end of WW1

November 14, 2018

The Headmaster, Mr James Fowler, was joined by the President of the OA Society Mr James James Crook, along with the Senior and Prep School Head Boys and Girls as they laid wreaths alongside religious and community leaders at the Letchmore Heath service on Remembrance Sunday. The School Brass Ensemble led the hymns as a large number of the local community gathered in the morning sunshine, like many others across the country.

The Aldenham CCF marched from the School to the village behind the rallying sound of the bagpipes before they stood in formation by the war memorial making an important reminder of the significance of the event. One of the highlights was the flypast of a Spitfire on this centenary of the end of the First World War.
