Remembrance Day 2020

Lesson: British Values

Respecting Others in Our Community - Remembrance Day - November 2020

Our Year Six pupils led our Remembrance Service.     Over thirty of our families joined us for the service.    We appreciate you taking the time to join us as it made the service more meaningful for the children – thank you.   I’m sure you’ll agree they did an amazing job.    As part of the service, we heard about  Three brave young men from Warmingham gave their lives for their country during World War 1:

Sergeant Richard Ashley

Private William Boulton

Private Joseph Henry Thomas

They are commemorated on the brass plaque on the west wall of St Leonard’s Church.    The clock in the clock tower was purchased after the war in their honour.    We also learnt about some of our relatives:

Officer Carl Hoyle who served 27 years in the RAF.    He completed several tours including some in Afghanistan, Iraq and Bosnia.  He even had a mention on the Queen’s Honours List and received a medal from her.

Private Charles Harold William Rawlings served in the 7th Battalion Worcestershire regiment.   He was killed in battle.  

Private Dennis Rawlings who was killed in battle.  

Corporal Stewart Butters served with the Corps of Royal Engineers for 13 years.  He received medals for serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Corporal Arthur Walker who was in command of a tank in World War Two.   He was involved in the D Day invasion.
