Pupils and staff across our campus community of Cathedral, Firpark and Clydeview Primary Schools, as well as Cathedral Nursery, paused for a one minute silence on Friday 11th November as a mark of respect for the brave men and women, past and present, who lost their lives fighting for our country.
This tradition began way back in 1919 and happens at exactly the same time every year: the 11th hour of the 11th month as this was the day and time when World War I came to an end.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
