Children at a city school have been learning about and reflecting on the sacrifices made by members of the Armed Forces, both past and present.
To commemorate Armistice Day, pupils created beautiful poppy-themed artwork providing an opportunity for children to share their understanding of remembrance and the importance of honouring those who have served their country.
Today, the pupils lined up in the playground to take part in a two minute silence.
A particularly moving moment came when Year 2 teacher Miss Perkins performed The Last Post on her clarinet.
Her performance helped create a reflective atmosphere and encouraged everyone present to pause and remember those who gave so much in service to others.
The school was also honoured to welcome a serving member of the Parachute Regiment, who visited in full uniform.
During his visit, he toured the school, viewed the pupils' work and spent time talking with children about his role in the Armed Forces.
The school said the day remains an important part of the school's commitment to helping children understand their place within the wider community and to reflect on the courage and dedication of those who have served their country.
