In September 2023 our S6 students went to the war graves in Belgium to pay their respects. We had a service of Remembrance in St George’s Memorial church in Ypres, including  and students visited sites associated  with WW1. We paid our respects at the graves of former pupils of Airdrie Academy, went to Passchendaele museum and the trenches at Hill 62. Our students also had the privilege of participating in the Menin Gate ceremony, laying wreathes on behalf of the school, Girls’ Brigade and Airdrie Football Club.
