We are excited to be taking part in an event entitled “Bridge of Don Remembers” next term. All schools in the Bridge of Don will take part in the WWI Centenary event, working in collaboration with the BOD churches, the local community and the British Legion. The school will participate in a series of events leading up to a special Service of Remembrance at the Balgownie Memorial on Sunday 11th November. These events include:
- Whole school Remembrance Assembly.
- Some children will visit the Legion to entertain members with songs and poems.
- Researching local war heroes.
- Artwork around the poppy theme.
- Use of a ‘Peace Wall’ to allow reflection.
If you have any artefacts, photos or stories about family members involved in the war, we would love to hear from you.
