In honour of Remembrance Day, our school library has created a poignant display featuring poppies, crosses, and candles, to represent The Fallen, inviting students to remember and reflect on the sacrifices made during the war. The display includes a selection of book suggestions, from war-related fiction to personal biographies, with ones available to borrow from the main school library.

Our annual Remembrance service was held this morning in the Great Hall. Old Olavian Mr Graham Miln laid the Wreath together with Captain of School Alicija Nowicka. We appreciate the attendance of the Chairman of the Old Olavian Society, Mr Chris Harris, and than the Chaplain Rev Bowen for leading the Service.

Our thanks also to our choir for their moving performance of 'In Flanders Fields' setting by Ian Assersohn and to our musicians,  including 'The Last Post' and 'Reveille' sounded by Gareth Councell.
