Calling on your creativity for an act of remembrance!
Some of our students have been invited back to Ospringe primary school to take their remembrance day service again this year. Last year we produced a wreath for them out of knitted poppies. We would like to do the same this year, but we need your help – both staff and students!
The focus this year is going to be on the themes of heroes, loyalty and friendship, and the service will use inspiration from the famous story of a Japanese dog called Hachiko (which was made into a very sad film), who, after his master had died, still went to wait for him everyday, at the station, for nearly 10 years, as he did not know his master had died.

We would like our wreath this year to reflect this, and below are some templates of dogs and poppies. If you would like to, please use one or more of these templates to create a poppy or dog or both, that we could put on the wreath. This could be out of tissue paper, knitting, crochet, felt, cross stitch, whichever medium you would like. You may want to have this as a half-term project, but if you need inspiration or help, you can come to Ms Bawn’s room, C11, on a Tuesday at 3:35.
Please give these completed designs to either Dr Moseley, Mrs Bawn or Mrs Legrand – by Tuesday 3rd November (earlier if you can).
Link for the template is below!
