LEST WE FORGET

Yesterday, our staff and students gathered in the Atrium to honour those who served.

Before the two minute silence, we were moved by original music composed by our Music aproduction students, pieces they created as part of their coursework, making this Rememberance Day even more meaningful.

A moment of silence, reflection and gratitude.

We will remember them ๐ŸŒน
