I would like to create a ‘Poppy Field’ display within the School and ECC to raise the awareness of ‘Armistice Day’. Armistice Day is on 11 November and is also known as Remembrance Day or ‘Poppy Day’.

It marks the day World War One ended, at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month, in 1918. A two-minute silence is held at 11am to remember the people who have died in wars.

The Head Teacher challenge this month is to design a Poppy to be put on our display. These can be designed in anyway you can think of, using any material you choose. It should reflect the theme of remembrance and peace.  It should be no bigger than the palm of your hand.

When you have made your poppy please write your name and class on the back of it and bring it into school by the 10th November to be displayed.
