Generations Unite: Remembrance Day 2026

On Wednesday 11 November, parents, grandparents, family members and former staff came into school for our Generations Unite event. They sat down with our Year 6 pupils to share the stories, memories and service of loved ones past and present. We were also honoured to welcome the Mayor of Towcester, Maggie Clubley.

The children listened closely and asked some really thoughtful questions. It was lovely to see so many generations side by side, sharing such personal stories. The cakes and biscuits families brought in went down a treat too.

At 11am the whole school, from Reception to Year 6, gathered on the turning circle for our service. Every child held the full two-minute silence while our guests stood with them. Year 6 read poetry with real care and feeling, and the Last Post was played beautifully by a pupil from Sponne School.

It was the most respectful Remembrance Day any of us can remember. Thank you to everyone who joined us and made the day possible. We will remember them.
