Poppy Display at Godstowe

This June was the 100 year anniversary of the start of World War 1.  

Many celebrations have been taking place over the year to mark this great occasion, one of the most impressive being the wonderful display of ceramic poppies that has been on display at the Tower of London this summer.   

At Godstowe we do not like to be outdone!  During the first few weeks of term girls at Godstowe produced either a ceramic poppy in Art or a fabric poppy in DT (or perhaps both).  These poppies will be displayed around the front of school in the style of the Tower of London ones. We will then have our Rememberance Day service at 11.00am on the 11th November around our poppy display and it will be a very poignant time for us as a Godstowe family.  

After the 11th November, girls will be able to take home their poppies and a voluntary donation of £5 will be donated to the British Legion Poppy Appeal.
