Remembrance Day
takes place on 11 November every year in Commonwealth Countries, marking the official
ending of the WWI on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh
month in 1918, Armistice Day. A two minute silence is held on this day every
year so that we do not forget the millions killed, injured and affected by war
and people wear remembrance poppies. The
Discovery Library has a special Remembrance display of war time story books for
you to borrow. 
The Ravensbourne School war memorial,
initially dedicated to students and staff who gave their lives in the Great
War, is situated in the KS4/5 Library; known as the War Memorial Library. It
was added to again after World War II. The war memorial is important to the
life of the school and we mention it often.
